IND vs AUS: The Border-Gavaskar Trophy has started with a bang as the first Test match took place in Perth, where both teams have put up an exceptional bowling performance for the first day of play. On the first day, 17 wickets fell, and India was bowled out for just 150 runs by batting first. Australia also struggled, losing 7 wickets for just 67 runs by the end of the day, leaving India with an 83-run lead.
Their strategy clearly remains the same on the second day. Dismiss Australia for a total of under 100 runs to take full advantage of the lead. As their innings are hanging in by a thread, the Indian bowlers need to finish off in time, further confirming a good position in the match.
This planning of Team India will surely bring Australia to its knees in the second match of the Perth Test, understand how. In such a situation, let us know what will be the planning of Team India on the second day of the game.
Crucial plans that India needs to follow in 1st of BGT at Perth
Planning will have to be done to wrap up Australia within 100 runs
After poor batting on the first day of the Perth Test, the bowling of Team India was tremendous. At the end of the day, the Indian team took 7 wickets of Australia at a score of 67 runs. In this way, Team India kept a lead of 83 runs on the first day. On the second day of the game, the Indian team will try to wrap up the host team within 100 runs and keep the important lead with them so that Team India can maintain its hold on the match.
Even a small mistake in fielding will not be tolerated
On the first day of the Perth Test match, Team India’s bowlers performed brilliant bowling but in many places, it was seen that Team India’s players committed mistakes in fielding. As Australia is such a team that if gets a second chance, it does not miss the second one again. In such a situation, Team India’s players will have to maintain higher fielding standards.
Giving a good start to the opening batsmen
Batting on the Perth pitch is not going to be easy at all. For instance, it was on the first day that 17 wickets fell. If the bowlers of the Indian cricket team could have taken three wickets from Australia early on the second day of the game, then the Indian cricket team’s openers would have had to give a good start in the second innings so that Australia could have been given a strong target in the fourth innings.
Top-order batsmen must come good in their strength
For a very long time now the top-order batting of this Indian team has not been coming up with a run-scoring spree. Even in the Perth Test, batsmen like Virat Kohli and Devdutt Paddikal totally disappointed. At such times if the opener batsmen for some reason or other do not come up with a good start for Team India, then in such circumstances, the remaining top-order batsmen have to raise their levels.
Sledding has to be replied
Australia’s team is in trouble in the Perth Test match. In such a situation, the Kangaroo team won’t miss any trick to put pressure on Team India in their home. In such a situation, Team India also needs to be fully prepared. The Indian team should also try that if Australia sledges then it will have to answer in the same language.
