Marnus Labuschagne on Indian bowling attack: The Indian team has to tour Australia at the end of 2024. The excitement of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy has already started to take over the players. Now Australian batsman Marnus Labuschagne believes that India will be a strong contender for victory in the upcoming series. The five-match series between India and Australia will start from November 22.

In a media interview, Marnus Labuschagne praised India's pace attack and said, “India's fast bowling quartet is excellent. That is why it is difficult to defeat them in Australian conditions. Hopefully this time we will be able to put pressure on India by bringing the conditions in our favor.”

India's pace attack

Talking about India's pace attack, everyone's eyes will be on Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah has so far taken 159 wickets in his 36 Test match career. So far, he has taken 32 wickets in 7 matches against Australia. On the other hand, everyone is eagerly waiting for the return of Mohammed Shami, who has taken 44 wickets in 12 matches against Australia in his career. At the same time, Mohammad Siraj will also have to play his role well, who has taken 74 wickets in a Test career of 27 matches. It will be interesting to see who joins him as the fourth fast bowler.

India will score a hat-trick of victories

The Indian team has won the last 2 Australian tours and this time under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, India would like to make a hat-trick of defeating Australia on its soil.
