India vs Australia: The Test series of four matches between India vs Australia (IND vs AUS 1st Test 2023) is going to start from February 9 (ind vs aus test series venue). At the same time, the visiting team Australia has also started planning to defend against batsmen like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. But in the midst of all this, Team India’s experienced player R Ashwin (ravichandran ashwin) has told the name of that important batsman of Team India who is more aggressive batsman than Kohli Rohit. Let’s know who is that player. Stay connected with Hindi.InsideSport.In for all the latest cricket news.
Significantly, the first match of the Test series between India vs Australia will be played in Nagpur from 9 February. But Shreyas Iyer will not play in this match due to injury. In such a situation, India will definitely miss the player in the first Test. On the other hand, Ashwin said about Iyer, “Shreyas Iyer has been a well-known Test batsman of India along with Rishabh Pant in the last few years. This in itself is a low compliment to him. He has been the backbone of this batting line-up. He is going to be a key player for India in Pant’s absence.”
Why does Ashwin consider Shreyas Iyer as an important batsman?
- Iyer has done exceptionally well for India in Test matches since making his Test debut in the year 2021.
- Shreyas Iyer has scored 624 runs in seven Tests at an impressive average of 56.72.
- Iyer was also instrumental in helping India win a difficult run chase against Bangladesh during the last Test series.
- The right-handed batsman’s attacking batting has helped India finish well in the last one year.
- Iyer also has an impressive record of 388 runs at home at an average of 55.42. But India will have to make do without a middle-order batsman, at least for the first Test.
With Iyer ruled out of the first Test, Suryakumar Yadav may debut in the Nagpur Test. Shreyas Iyer, however, is likely to be fit before the second Test. The first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will begin on February 9 at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium.
IND vs AUS: A source in the Indian Cricket Board told The Indian Express, “His injury has not healed as expected and it will take at least two weeks for him to play cricket again. He will definitely not be available for the first Test, and his availability for the second Test will be subject to his fitness report.”
