Virat Kohli, KL Rahul and skipper Rohit Sharma were among the players to hit the nets in Brisbane ahead of the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia, starting December 14.

"Little Bit Off-Colour...": Ex-India Selector Delivers Brutal Verdict On Jasprit Bumrah

The opportunity for India to consolidate on the high of winning the Perth Test by 295 runs was squandered away through a ten-wicket defeat in the pink-ball Test in Adelaide. At Adelaide Oval, the Australian bowlers kept their deliveries much fuller than the Indian bowling attack on the first two days of the game, which set the platform for them to win by ten wickets and level the five-match series 1-1. According to Jatin Paranjape, the former India cricketer and national selector, India's failure to bowl fuller deliveries, in contrast to Australia's approach, cost them the match. “I thought we didn't bowl as well as we did in Perth. I thought the Australians kind of bowled much better than what the Indian team bowled. I thought Bumrah also was a little bit off-colour.”

Ex-Pacer, Once Victim Of A Sachin Tendulkar Rampage, Is Now A Painter In Australia

Former Zimbabwe fast bowler Henry Olonga is someone remembered fondly by Indians, for he was the victim of a Sachin Tendulkar rampage in 1998. Playing the final of a triangular series between India, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka, Tendulkar smashed 124 off 92 balls, taking Olonga to the cleaners. Over 25 years later, however, Olonga's life has taken an unprecedented turn. In 2019, Olonga went viral as he wowed judges in 'The Voice Australia' singing competition. Now, Olonga is a part-time painter for social causes, and was present during the second Test between India and Australia at Adelaide.

"No Way That's Cramp...": Injury Concern For Jasprit Bumrah? Report Makes Explosive Claim

The Indian cricket team had its first training session on Tuesday after the heavy loss against Australia in the pink-ball Test match. While most India cricketers attended the session, there were two major absentees - Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. According to a report by Sydney Morning Herald, both the fast bowlers skipped practice as part of workload management. However, the sight of Bumrah spending time with India's strength and conditioning coach on the sidelines of the practice session has sparked a massive concern. During the second Test match, Bumrah was seen holding his inner thigh in pain and although he continued bowling, there were some experts who were left concerned.

While India faltered against Australia in the second Test of the five-match series, Japsrit Bumrah continued to live up to the expectations. The right-arm pacer picked four wickets in Australia's first innings against India in the day-night Test in Adelaide. This came after Bumrah had bagged the Player of the Match award in the first game in Perth with 8 wickets to his name, including a five-wicket haul in the first innings. Given the amount of importance Bumrah holds, it is hard for India to rest the pacer during the ongoing Test series against Australia. However, along with that Bumrah's workload management also needs to be considered.

Rohit Sharma's Captaincy In Line Of Fire Over 'Jasprit Bumrah Decision'

India captain Rohit Sharma has some tough questions to answer after the team's defeat in the pink-ball Test against Australia in Adelaide. Rohit replaced Jasprit Bumrah as the skipper for the team after India comprehensively defeated Australia in the opening match at Perth. However, Rohit's captaincy looked lackluster in the day-night Test, where India suffered a humbling 10-wicket defeat. As experts pose critical questions in front of Rohit, former India batter Aakash Chopra remains baffled by the captain's usage of marquee pacer Jasprit Bumrah in the game.

Kapil Dev Feels "It's Too Early" To Talk About Jasprit Bumrah's Potential Succession As Captain

Former cricketer Kapil Dev believes it is too early to judge if Jasprit Bumrah is the "best available candidate" to replace Rohit Sharma as the captain when the time comes. The Indian team stepped into Perth's Optus Stadium with an air of swagger around them. Bumrah captained the visitors in Rohit's absence, who was unavailable due to personal reasons. By imposing relentless pressure on Australia, India stood victorious with a record-shattering 295-run triumph over the hosts to go 1-0 up in the series.

'Let's not doubt Rohit Sharma's ability to bounce back', retorted the legendary Kapil Dev, who also felt that under-fire India skipper doesn't need to prove himself at this stage of his career. Rohit, who managed scores of 3 and 6 in the the Adelaide pink-ball Test after dropping down the batting order, is being criticized by fans and former players for being subdued. India lost the game by 10 wickets in just two and a half days.
