Indian cricket team needs to respect Australian bowling attack
Australia's Test captain Pat Cummins has warned Virat Kohli and his Indian team that they need to show respect to the Australian bowling attack if they want to succeed in the upcoming Test series. Cummins said that the Indian batsmen will need to be patient and disciplined against Australia's pace attack, which is one of the best in the world.
“They've got a lot of quality in their batting lineup, but they're going to have to respect our bowling attack,” Cummins said. “We've got a lot of experience and we know how to bowl in these conditions. If they come out and try to take us on, they're going to be in for a long day.”
Indian batsmen need to be prepared for a tough challenge
Cummins also said that the Indian batsmen will need to be prepared for a tough challenge against Australia's fast bowlers. He said that the Australian bowlers will be relentless in their attack and will not give the Indian batsmen any easy runs.
“They're going to have to be prepared for a tough challenge,” Cummins said. “Our bowlers are going to be coming at them hard from ball one. They're not going to give them any easy runs. They're going to have to be patient and disciplined if they want to score runs against us.”
India's batting line-up has to be up to the mark
Finally, Cummins said that India's batting line-up will need to be up to the mark if they want to win the Test series. He said that the Indian batsmen will need to score big runs and put pressure on the Australian bowlers.
“Their batting line-up is going to have to be up to the mark if they want to win this series,” Cummins said. “They've got some quality players, but they're going to have to perform consistently if they want to beat us.”
