India vs Australia: Cannot use ODIs and T20s to prepare for a Test match series, says Mohammad Kaif

India Today  

Prior to India’s first pink-ball Test in Australia, a lot was said and written around how it would be a challenge for the batsman to face the swinging ball under lights. Former India batsman Mohammad Kaif also highlighted this point in a social media post after India’s horror show in the Adelaide Test, and went on to say that while facing either the red ball or the pink ball, correct technique and temperament is what comes to the assistance of the batsmen. — Mohammad Kaif December 20, 2020 He also added that limited over games cannot be the way to prepare for an important Test series such as the Border Gavaskar Trophy. The last Test series India played was against the New Zealand in February and India went on to lose the two-match series 2-0, making it a first hat-trick of losses for Team India under the captaincy of Virat Kohli.
