BCCI's Latest Move Ahead Of Australia Tour Seen As Indication Of Much 'Concern' After New Zealand Hammering
India stars KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel, according to a report in ESPN Cricinfo, are being sent early to Australia and will play a game for India A against Australia A. After India's loss against New Zealand in a Test series at home, the Rohit Sharma-led side is under big scrutiny. In the upcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy, India need to win four matches in Australia to not be reliant on other teams' results for qualifying for next year's World Test Championship final. In that context, the sudden decision to send KL Rahul and Dhriv Jurel early may be perceived as a desperate move.
