IND VS AUS: Virat-Rohit are dependent on playing 50 balls, how will they rule Test cricket, the big question is how will the situation change in future?

adelaide Playing session after session in Test cricket, spending time at the crease, playing every ball on merit, and knowing one's off-stump perhaps seems to be out of celebre for the Indian team now. Adelaide Test also did not remain untouched by this.

The Indian team has played four innings so far on this Australian tour and the surprising thing is that during this time most of the batsmen were neither able to spend time at the crease nor scored any runs. Everyone is reviewing the defeat in Adelaide. Some people are paying less attention to the fact that after winning Perth, that big flaw was hidden, but there were indications that if this attitude continues in the future, it will not take long for it to disintegrate.

Big players are messing around

Indian batting started getting exposed from the first innings of Perth Test. Even in Adelaide, the story did not change at all, especially the condition of Virat, Rohit, Rahul was very bad. Virat played 8 balls in the first innings and 21 balls in the second innings in Adelaide. Rohit played 23 balls in the first innings and 15 balls in the second innings. Rahul faced 64 balls in the first innings and 10 balls in the second innings. This means that among the top three batsmen of the team, only Rahul was able to play more than 50 balls in an innings. Virat was able to play 12 balls in the first innings of Perth. The struggle of experienced top order batsmen is like a nightmare, the more it can be avoided the better. The situation is so bad that out of four innings, only in the second innings in Perth, the entire team batted 134 overs. Batted 44.1 overs in the first innings in Adelaide and 36.5 overs in the second innings and 49.4 overs in the first innings in Perth.

Junior on the way to senior

Now why should the junior players of a team where it is becoming difficult for the senior batsmen to play 50 balls, work hard? In the first innings of the Adelaide Test, only three batsmen were able to play 50+ balls. Rahul 64, Shubman Gill 51 and Nitish Reddy played 54 balls. The rest of the batsmen did not bother to work hard. In the second innings, except Reddy, no batsman could play more than 30 balls. Result: The team scored only 180 in the first innings and only 180 in the second innings. Only 175 runs could be scored in the innings. In both the innings together, the team batted only 81 overs. The biggest problem of the Indian team is their batting. , So far on this tour, scores of 200+ have been scored only once in four innings, which itself tells the story of the failure of the Indian team.
