Top Order Makes India A Very Dangerous Side: Abhishek Nayar
Captain Suryakumar Yadav: Former India assistant coach Abhishek Nayar lauded the top-order batting prowess of the Men in Blue and cautioned Australia of a tough contest in the five-match T20I series starting here on Wednesday.
India’s top three include openers Abhishek Sharma (No. 1-ranked T20I batter), Shubman Gill, and Tilak Varma (No. 3-ranked T20I batter). Not only that, India captain Suryakumar Yadav is among the top 10 in the T20I batting rankings.
“These Australian conditions could suit Abhishek Sharma’s style perfectly, as he thrives on bounce and prefers playing beside the line. We’ve seen players like Travis Head succeed due to the consistent bounce. While he'll face challenges against bowlers like Josh Hazlewood, who consistently hit back of a length, his IPL experience against these bowlers will help. Conditions matter, but his attacking mentality can overcome them, especially during Powerplays where boundary sizes become irrelevant. If he maintains his intent and continues playing beside the line, this could be a very successful tour for him,” Nayar said on JioStar’s ‘Game Plan’.
