Before the Indore Test, Smith is killing himself! Planned strategy to recover from two defeats

India from March 1 at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore against The third Test in the Australian team is about to begin. India have taken a 2-0 lead in the series after defeating the visiting team in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023. Now many have expressed the hope that the Australian team will make a comeback in the remaining two matches of the series. The Australian team also started their preparations in the same way.

Australia will be led by veteran batsman Steve Smith in the third match. Regular captain Pat Cummins has returned home for family reasons after a four-year absence. He seems to be gearing up for this opportunity.

In the first practice session in Indore, Smith was seen practicing against the spinners. Initially he batted with Usman Khawaja. Smith practiced for nearly an hour against leading spinner Nathan Lyon and youngster Matthew Kuhnman.

All of Australia’s batsmen were seen struggling against India’s spinners in the first two matches. These batsmen were especially trying to hit the sweep shot. However, Smit was seen doing front foot defense during his practice. Therefore, in the third test, it is seen that Australia batsmen will focus more on defense. In addition, Peter Handscomb and Marnus Labuchen were also practicing spin bowling for longer periods.

Probable Australia Playing XI for Indore Test-

Usman Khawaja, Travis Head, Marnus Labuchen, Steve Smith (captain), Cameron Green, Peter Handscomb, Alex Carey, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Todd Murphy and Lance Morris.
