India vs Australia: India's most inexperienced bowling attack to take on mighty Aussies at Brisbane
Hindustan TimesThe Indian team management faced an uphill task on Friday morning as they had to choose the playing XI for the fourth and final Test match against Australia in Brisbane. Indian players congratulate teammate Mohammed Siraj, centre, after dismissing Australia's David Warner during first day of the fourth cricket test between India and Australia at the Gabba, Brisbane. That fight put paid to his chances of playing the final Test and India fast bowling talisman Jasprit Bumrah too was unavailable due to injury. So, the total experience of India bowling attack ahead of the match was 3 Test matches and 10 deliveries, by far the most inexperienced bowling attack the team has ever put on the field in recent times. Left arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav could have added some experience to the bowling attack in Ashwin's absence but the team management decided to go in with Sundar, who was on the tour as a net bowler, due to his batting abilities lower down the order.
