Australia Star, Set To Open In Perth, Takes Swipe At Jasprit Bumrah: "Bizarre Kind Of..."

Australia's left-handed opener Usman Khawaja admits Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah's unusual bowling action initially feels awkward, but with constant exposure to facing him, it becomes easier to handle. "I mean, when you first face him, it's just his action. It's a different, bizarre kind of action as his release point is very different than other bowlers. It's just a bit further up. So a lot of guys release the ball from near the popping crease. (Against Bumrah) it feels like he gets a bit further out just with his front braced leg and pushes the ball out," said Khawaja to Fox Sports on Thursday.

Sunil Gavaskar Sets Record Straight On Virat Kohli Ahead Of Australia Tests. Says "Survive..."

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar feels Virat Kohli has the track record to turn around his poor form during the upcoming five-match Test series against Australia. Kohli arrived in Australia on the back of a horror outing with the bat against New Zealand at home, where he scored just 93 runs across six innings in a shock 0-3 loss at home. However, Gavaskar is confident of a turnaround, especially considering Kohli's exceptional record in Australia. Historically, Australia has been a stage where Kohli has performed spectacularly, scoring 1352 runs in 13 Tests at an average of 54.08. He has also scored six centuries and four fifties Down Under.

Australia Dominate Pakistan In Truncated T20I Series-Opener

Veteran batter Glenn Maxwell returned to form before quicks Xavier Bartlett and Nathan Ellis claimed three wickets apiece as Australia downed Pakistan by 29 runs in a truncated T20I series-opener in Brisbane on Thursday.
