Indore Test: Before the third match of the four-match Test series between India and Australia (IND vs AUS), KS Bharat was seen making special preparations. At the Holkar Stadium in Indore, he was seen working hard behind the wicket to face the spinners well.
This Test being held in Indore is a ‘do or die’ match for Australia, they have to win this match at any cost to draw the series. Here, the Indian team would like to win this match and secure its place in the WTC final. In such a situation, the pitch of Indore has also been made spin friendly.
Australian batsmen appeared in trouble on the spin track of Nagpur and Delhi. In such a situation, the ball will turn fiercely in Indore as well. Here the balls can also remain low, in such a situation it will be a challenge for the wicketkeepers to stand behind the wickets. This was the reason that on Tuesday (February 28), KS Bharat kept practicing wicketkeeping for a long time. This whole exercise happened in front of spin bowling.
