Australia batters must find the right tempo: Sriram

Hindustan Times  

Pat Cummins, Australia’s captain and lead pacer, has returned home for personal reasons. New Delhi: Indian bowler Ravichandran Ashwin celebrates with teammate Virat Kohli after the wicket of Australian batter Steve Smith during the third day of the 2nd test cricket match between India and Australia, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, in New Delhi, Sunday, Feb. 19, 2023. As is well-documented, skipper Virat Kohli was unavailable for the final three Tests of the series after the ignominy of 36 all out at Adelaide and a host of senior players suffered injuries as the series wore on, leaving India with no choice but to field a very depleted side by the time the final Test came around, at Australia's fortress Gabba, no less. As much as India’s performance in Australia was a one-off that can't really be replicated, the men donning the Baggy Green need to believe there’s still plenty to play for. India lost in Adelaide but bounced back strongly in Melbourne,” said Sridharan Sriram, who was Australia’s assistant coach helping the spinners from 2018 to 2022.
