Abhishek Nayar, a former all-rounder for India, offered his opinions about the all-rounders on the Australian and Indian squads. A three-match ODI series between India and Australia will precede the much awaited ODI World Cup. The two teams will do their final dress rehearsal in an effort to once again captivate audiences around the world. On Friday, September 22, the opening ODI will take place at Mohali.
Australia can rely on players like Cameron Green and Marcus Stoinis while India can count on players like Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, and Shardul Thakur. Although they are mostly bowlers, Pat Cummins and Sean Abbott can both bat. Nayar believes that the Australian all-rounders have higher batting power and can also take wickets.
More all-rounders who can contribute with the bat and ball and offer a lot of power are there among the Australian contingent. The Indian all-rounders, on the other hand, will take their time. They are capable of aggression, but only after settling in. That is something I think India would be cautious about. One is whether they are able to rival the strength of the Australians. In a conversation on JioCinema’s “Home of the Blues,” Nayar said, “Two, can their all-rounders pick wickets the way we know the Australian all-rounders have the ability to?”
They are concentrating on getting a big hit rather than what the score is: Abhishek Nayar
Abhishek Nayar also discussed the significance of Indian bowlers contributing with wickets on a consistent basis to stop the flow of runs against the destructive Australian hitters. Fascinatingly, he went on to say that the Australian batter won’t be overly concerned with what the score shows, instead focusing on scoring frequently with huge hits. Therefore, it is crucial for bowlers to be able to get wickets in high-scoring environments to stop the batsmen’ momentum.
If Shardul Thakur and Ravindra Jadeja can continue to peg them and take wickets, you would have an excellent opportunity against this potent Australian batting order. I firmly feel that it’s critical to choose wickets in a high-scoring environment. Everyone who enters the bowling match, not just the best bowlers, should take wickets. You anticipate Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, and Ravindra Jadeja to pick off wickets and maintain tight fielding, respectively, he added.
“You’re looking at Australian players who, no matter the circumstance, can be devastating. They are concentrating on making a big hit rather than what the score is. You want to make sure you have wicket-taking options when you have players with that mentality, Nayar said.
