India will whitewash Australia: Sourav

In the ongoing Boarder – Gavaskar Trophy, India is playing well against Australia. Familiar wickets and conditions, as well as home ground advantage, India’s excellent form as well. Who can stop Team India? Rohit Sharma’s team defeated Australia with whirlwind magic, making it a paradise for spinners. In front of the spin of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin, Australia had no choice but to surrender helplessly. In a word, Australia has been blown away by India in the first two Tests.

India has already taken a 2-0 lead in the 4-match Test series. The way those two wins came, it felt like Australia had never played spin. Australian batsmen could not stand in front of India’s dominating bowlers. The first two Tests were completed in just three days. So, India will whitewash Australia by maintaining the streak of success in the next matches as well; former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly hopes so.

Sourav praised the Indian team’s strong performance at home. The former president of the Board of Cricket in India (BCCI) said in a press conference, “I think India will win the series 4-0. With the current form of the Indian team, it will be difficult to beat them. India is an unstoppable team at home. Rohit-Kohli knows that how to play with prowess.”

Like Sourav, Ian Chappell has already guessed this. The former Australian legend said of his team, “We are mentally a lot behind now. Having lost the first two matches, the team’s players may have lost confidence. It is expected. In those two matches, in batting and bowling, Australia did not do well in any department. Lost Test in three days. Australia has woes on tour of India. Can be whitewashed too.”

However, it should not be difficult for India to whitewash the current state of Australia team. For this, the hosts are going to get additional benefits. Rohit is taking full advantage of the wicket. On the other hand, several important players of the Australian team have returned home due to injuries and off-field incidents. Stars like David Warner, Pat Cummins are not staying in the next two Tests. Some have injury problems; some have personal work. Therefore, the full-strength Australian team is not fielding in the next two Tests. Let’s see if India win the series 4-0 as Sourav expected.
