Former Australia cricket team wicket-keeper batter Brad Haddin believes that Indian batters will have not be able to stand up to the Australia fast bowlers.
Brad Haddin, a former wicket-keeper for the Australian cricket team, thinks Indian hitters won’t be able to handle the fast bowlers from Australia. In a recent conversation, Haddin made the observation that Indian hitters, regardless of size, would find it difficult to score runs because of their vulnerability to bouncers. He also mentioned the gifted young batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal, saying that despite his recent run-scoring prowess, the left-hander would have trouble in the opening Test match beginning on November 22.
“I don’t believe our quicks will be able to hold their own against the Indian batsmen. Although I am aware that Jaiswal is a really talented player, I am unsure of his ability to manage the bounce because he has never visited Australia. “It takes a lot of work to open in Perth,” Haddin stated on the LiSTNR Sport podcast.
According to former Australia captain Aaron Finch, who participated in Haddin’s podcast, Australia’s top order would have a same amount of difficulty against Indian fast bowlers. Finch said that Alex Carey and Rishabh Pant, the wicketkeepers, have the ability to alter the outcome of the series.
“Alex Carey and Rishabh Pant, the two wicketkeepers, are going to be crucial, therefore I believe they may be the key. Due to their exceptional skill, both fast-bowling attacks have the ability to overwhelm the top order. Thus, in my opinion, Alex at number seven and Rishabh at number six play extremely important roles. Both Rishabh and Carey are aggressive. And I believe that will be quite significant,” Finch added.
“You can be five down and it’s right before stumps on the second new ball. In those ten overs, they take it for fifty. It just alters the game’s entire momentum. Since both fast-bowling approaches, in my perspective, cancel each other out, I believe that No.
7’s influence on the game is crucial. Perhaps Nathan has that edge while playing in Australia, along with Ashwin and Jadeja. The keepers are crucial since both batting lineups haven’t been playing at their best in a while,” he continued.
