India A is a rather strong team with the likes of Rishabh Pant, Shahbaz Nadeem, Hardik Pandya and many more to name. It would be a worthy match for Australians to play where they would get some idea about the cricketing conditions here in India.
Australia haven't had a great recent past as far as touring to India is concerned. They have faced a lot of defeats in all forms of the game. And test cricket comes with a lot of pride. They would certainly love to make a mark here this time.
On the other hand, Indian team lead by Kohli is in no mood to lose any. They are on a glorious winning streak and they would love to continue their dream run. The batting line up is in great form. The captain Kohli himself is enjoying the best patch of his career. Alongside, we have Rahane, Nair, Murali Vijay and Pujara in great form. Bowlers like Jadeja, Ashwin, Kumar, Ishant and Yadav are pumped up to show their skills against the visitors.
First let's see the approach of the likes of Warner and Smith in the warm up match against India A. That would also be a good observation for Kohli and company. We will keep you posted about the first test match that kicks off from 23rd February in Pune. Meanwhile, enjoy the warm up game!
