Pat Cummins has been named as Australia?s new Vice-Captain for limited over cricket (T20I and ODI). While talking about the IPL and Bio Bubble, the Australian Vice-Captain says, he feels fresh ahead of Australia vs India Series.



The Speedster played for Kolkata Knight Riders in Indian Premier League 2020 in UAE, believes that Playing in Bio Secure Bubble has benefitted him ahead of Australia vs India series. The Australian said, in usual IPL every second day is traveling which is exhausting sometimes but the Bio Bubble has kept him fresh.



<h2>Pat Cummins on Bio Bubble and Australian Pitches:</h2>



<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Look out, India!<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/AUSvIND?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#AUSvIND</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/samuelfez?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@samuelfez</a> <a href="https://t.co/LlceExK3SV">https://t.co/LlceExK3SV</a>&mdash; cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) <a href="https://twitter.com/cricketcomau/status/1328224402018852870?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 16, 2020</a></blockquote> 



?One of the benefits of being in a bubble in the UAE was we didn?t spend much time traveling,? Cummins to cricket.com.au.



?A normal IPL we?re on a flight every second day, different city, so I think sometimes that can be as draining as the playing part,? he added.



?No doubt as well, the six or seven months we had at home (during the winter) put us in a pretty good place leading into the England tour and IPL. Coming in fresh to those tours it doesn?t feel like the end of the summer, it feels like I?m ready to start the tour and in a pretty good place,? the fast bowler further said.



India will be on an Australian tour for 3 months, where 3 T20Is, 3 ODIs, and 4 Tests will be played between both the teams.&nbsp;The tour has already started with both the teams practicing under Biosecure Bubble for 14 days. The official tour will begin with 3 ODIs, with the first one being played in Sydney on 27th November.



Pat Cummins further said, ?Hopefully, pitches will react as what the Aussies are accustomed to. The surface got a bit more pace and bounce to what they get in India, that?s where a home advantage comes in.?



?Australian pitches give tough times to the Indian Batsmen?, he added.

Brad Hogg Picks Ajinkya Rahane ahead of Rohit Sharma for Test Captaincy. The former Australian reckons Rahane should be a better option. Brad Hogg Picks Ajinkya Rahane ahead of Rohit Sharma for Test Captaincy.



Soon after the Board of Control for Cricket in India released, Virat will be leaving Australia after the 1st Test, the experts have been divided into two views. Indian regular skipper will miss India vs Australia test series after the 1st game due to paternity leave and will fly back to India.&nbsp;



In absence of a regular skipper who will lead the side against a tenacious Australian lineup, the question is trending all over. While BCCI kept its silence on the issue but the experts of Cricket are divided into two views.



The likes of Irfan Pathan says that Rohit Sharma will be a much better option then Ajinkya Rahane. However, Brad Hogg reckons Ajinkya Rahane as a wise pick.



The Former Australian leg-spinner feels Rohit has not been in good touch in the overseas conditions when it comes to red-ball cricket, however, Ajinkya Rahane has done a fairly good job.



?Rahane will do a fine job. The only other option would be Rohit but his record touring in Test Cricket provides no certainty of him holding a spot in the team,? Hogg tweeted.

<h2>Is Anjinkya Rahane a better option:</h2>



Talking about the red ball fixtures, the white ball stylish opener has lacked his wood in overseas pitches. The five times IPL title winner made his test debut back in 2013, has an average of 88.33 with six tons and five half tons in home conditions. The overseas pitches have disturbed Rohit Sharma most of the time with his average dropping to just 26.32 away from home.



Rohit Sharma returned to the test side last year in winters against South Africa. This time the stylish wite ball batsman played as an opener and scored back to back hundreds and a double century. However, the exam of Rohit Sharma in overseas conditions is still due.



The limited over Vice Captian of India missed the Test fixtures against New Zealand due to an injury. The recent test series against Aussies will be ?make or break? for the 33-year-old, as far as the longest format career is concerned.



Ajinkya Rahane India?s Vice-Captain in Tests has done a fairly decent job. The Right-Handed player is the regular test player and a dependent cricketer to provide depth. Rahane proved his steel against Australia in the 2017 decider test match in home conditions when Virat Kohli was ruled out due to an injury.

The former Australian pacer, Glenn McGrath speaks in support of Australia ahead of India vs Australia. McGrath feels Australia has a slight edge over India because of left arm Pacer Mitchell Stark. India will be buoyed with the series win against Australia back in 2018-19.



?Bowlers will have a job to do in the test series. Mohd. Shami has great control and can swing the ball on both sides, Umesh has got raw pace. Bumrah is just class. He has great mental strength. His second and third spells are as quick as the first one. You have guys who, if on fire, are tough to beat but on the par, you have Josh Hazlewood, he can hit the right areas with the ball,? McGrath to the select media in an interaction organized by Sony.



?Pat Cummins is no 1 bowler in the world right now. He gets slightly different angles because of the way he runs in. Then they have, Mitchell Starc, the left arm lethal pacer. When he gets right, he can easily pick four or five at a go. He has got that X-Factor. If Both the teams are bowling on with top performances, I will rate Australia slightly higher because of the left-arm pacer.?

<h2>McGrath on Cheteswar Pujara:</h2>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2020/11/Cheteshwar-Pujara.jpg" alt="Cheteshwar Pujara scoring century against Sri Lanka" class="wp-image-21459" /><figcaption>Cheteshwar Pujara against Sri Lanka | Image - AFP</figcaption></figure></div>



India?s win against Australia back in 2018-19 was because of the valiant efforts from Pujara. Cheteshwar scoring 571, including 3 centuries made it easy for Team India. However, this time he will have to put in some extra efforts.



?Pujara is one of the two players in Indian Test squads who is not featured in any cricket match since March, thanks to Covid-19. Cheteshwar Pujara lastly played in the Ranji Trophy final in March. He is out of the game for almost 10 months, although he is practicing with the state team Saurashtra in nets.?



?McGrath feels he has to work harder for his runs to make a big impact due to lack of match time and not batting long.?



<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/india-squad-for-odis-t20is-and-test-date-venues-fixtures/">Read: Australia vs India Full Schedule and Squads</a>



?The last time he was successful to compile runs was that he occupied the crease for long. He is not the kind of batsman who feels pressure for not scoring runs. The modern-day cricketers want to convert the next over for a big if one over gets maiden. Pujara does not have that mindset, which helped him last time.?



<h2>McGrath on Australian Pitches:</h2>



The changing pitches is not a problem anymore for the current lineup, unlike in the past where they had to adjust to the pace and the bounce from the Australian Pitches. The surfaces have changed its character over the year.



?In the early days, Indian batsmen were not used to the pace and bounce from the pitches. But these now have become more flatter. I would not say they was real fear but the inexperienced bounce and pace troubled them. I don?t think Australian pitches have the same pace and bounce. But they are still quicker than what they get in India.?



?The first test will be interesting, as India has never experienced the Day and Night test game in Australia. With the sun setting, it will start favoring pacers. It is about a time when you are bowling and batting. Virat will have to make an impact in the first game itself, he won?t be plying more of them because of paternity leave.?



?As far as other batsmen are concerned, Rohit Sharma is a quality player. He has not shown anything big in overseas Test cricket but in absence of Virat he will definitely step up. You can not depend on one player, especially in the longest format of the game. You have Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, KL Rahul, and many more, they have a quality lineup,? he concluded.

The Australian Wicket Keeper Batsman, Alex Carey said, he is hoping to get his T20I position back in Australia vs India T20I series. Alex Carey told, he has worked on his technical part under Ricky Pointing back in IPL 2020.



The Wicket Keeper Batsman had the fortune to work under the former World Cup-winning skipper of Australia, Ricky Pointing in Delhi Capitals camp.



?It was my first IPL season and to have Ricky as head coach for Delhi Capitals and few more familiar faces in the camp made it a very enjoyable season of IPL,? Alex Carey to reporters during Video Conferencing.



The Australian batsman was dropped from the playing eleven in the last T20I against England in September, due to inconsistent form. In IPL he just played three games scoring 32 runs.



Alex Carey scored his maiden ODI century against England, clinching an ODI win over England. But in the preceding T20I series, he was dropped from the playing eleven making the way for Mathew Wade. In the two T20I against England, the wicketkeeper-batsman scored just 3 runs.



Carey did not have a memorable T20I season against South Africa too, scoring 7, 14, and 27 in three T20Is.&nbsp;



Now, India and Australia will play three T20Is after the ODIs starting on 27th November. Alex Carey hoping to make his comeback after working on his techniques and skills.

<h2>Alex Carey on his Comeback:</h2>



?I was lucky enough to work with him in the World Cup last year and formed a good relationship. He was an amazing player and is an amazing coach, and he picks up on little things really quickly,? Carey to the reporters.



?We have a lot to talk about, however, I didn?t play many games but that gave me more time to train myself and correct my technical part with Ricky. I had worked a lot on my skills in IPL which will help me grow and develop and have a successful summer.?



If it's a lower-order role or back up the top of the order, I'm doing everything I can to get back into that team and it's something I want to do.



"Since then I felt like I finished off that UK tour really strongly and took a lot out of the IPL working with (Ponting)."



"Coming up against England recently and India soon, we're playing the best in the world so it's a great indicator of where our T20 cricket is at."

Ishant Sharma regaining his fitness ahead of the India Australia clash. Pacer Ishant Sharma was seen bowling in the NCA camp on Wednesday. Ishant Sharma regaining his fitness ahead of India Australia clash.



Good news for the Indian cricket team and fans as the Test pace spearhead was seen bowling in the nets at National Cricket Acadamy (NCA). The pace lead of team India in tests is leaving no stone unshined to regain his fitness ahead of the India-Australia red ball clash. Ishant Sharma is currently at National Cricket Academy (NCA) doing his rehab for his injury.



The tall pacer was ruled out of the Indian Premier League 2020 due to a left internal oblique muscle tear during the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Ishant could only make solidarity appearances for the Dream11 IPL 2020 runner-ups.&nbsp;



The speedster was directly sent to the NCA after the injury to get fit headed by director Rahul Dravid and head physio Ashish Kaushik. Since then he is under their eyes and recovering to full fitness.



<h2>Ishant Sharma at NCA Practicing:</h2>

On Wednesday, ESPNcricinfo shared a video on their Twitter handle featuring Ishant Sharma bowling with his full run-up and action, Rahul Dravid and chief selector Sunil Joshi were also seen in the video watching the 32-years old bowling.



The BCCI president on an interview expected, Ishant Sharma to be fit ahead of the first Test match on 17th December.



?Yes, we are expecting Ishant to be back for the Test matches. He has already started bowling from shorter run-ups and short spells. He has bowled at NCA.



?But as there is a BCCI protocol for fast bowlers, Ishant will be playing the two first-class games in Australia,? Ganguly had said.



?As NCA head, Rahul Dravid said to the board that Ishant is recovering well, Ishant is working with Mhambrey to get fit for the test. As an experienced player, he will bring a lot of confidence to the side. In absence of Virat Kohli, he will be a key player for the test series.?



<h2>Will India rewrite History in Tests against Australia?</h2>



India will be looking to rewrite history by thrashing the side full of big stars for the second time. The first time India defeated Australia in the four-match test series in 2018-19, winning the series by 2-1. However, this time it will not be easy, as Australia will be seen featuring David Warner and Steve Smith after the ban.&nbsp;



A point to have in mind for team India, Australia has never lost any day/night test match from 2015. They have won all 5 day/night test matches till now.&nbsp;



The series will be having huge significance as it will add to the World Test Championship. India currently sits at the top of the World Test Championship with 360 points followed by Australia with 296 points.

India vs Australia: Sanjay Manjrekar is all set to return to the commentary panel in the India tour of Australia. The former cricketer was out of the BCCI list of commentators from March. However, Sony Pictures Network named the renowned commentator on the list for the Australia tour.



<h2>Sanjay Manjrekar sacked from BCCI panel:</h2>



Sanjay Manjrekar was sacked by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) from the list soon before the series with South Africa, which got canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The former cricketer was also not named in the list of commentators for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020.

Notably, Manjrekar during ODI World Cup 2019 made comment on Ravindra Jadeja saying ?bits-and-pieces player?. Jadeja did not like the comment made by the veteran and gesticulated angrily towards the commentary box after his half-century against New Zealand in the semi-final.



Sanjay Manjrekar in talks with The Indian Express, BCCI called him on the phone that he was sacked because ?some player did not like my attitude, they had an issue with me as a commentator?.?



The commentator reckoned, he would be ?happy to apologize? for the unwilling comment. He even wrote to the board to reinstate him twice, he was shaken by the decision and it was a ?big jolt? for him. But the authorities did not include him in the on-air talks after that.
