3 Australian players to watch out for from the 1st Test between AUS vs IND

Australia is set to take on India in the first of five Test matches set to be played in Perth. The match begins on Friday and there is wide anticipation regarding the series as the Border Gavaskar Trophy is one of the biggest cricketing clashes in modern times and has on occasion even gone past the popularity of Ashes or India vs Pakistan games.

Pat Cummins will lead the side against a team that has been dominated by his side in recent times. Australia under Pat Cummins beat India in the WTC and ODI World Cup 2023 finals. Rohit Sharma’s brutal 92 though brought some solace to the Indian fans to knock the Aussies out of the T20 World Cup.

The first Test match in Perth is expected to be a battle of wits and resilience. Batters will find it tough to play against the extra pace and bounce the wicket offers. Australia will have the familiarity of playing on their home turf added to their advantage. This will be a huge disadvantage for India as the Aussies boast some of the best pacers in the world.

Here are the top 3 Australian players to watch out for

3- Marnus Labuschagne

The 30-year-old batter has the best record in Perth with 519 runs with 3 centuries and a fifty, Marnus Labuschagne has an average of 103 and has already scored a double ton at this venue. Labuschagne can score huge runs and was one of the main Australian batters during the last series when India toured in 2020/21.

2- Pat Cummins

Australian skipper Pat Cummins will be a huge player for the home team with both the bat and ball. The 31-year-old has been a great captain since he took over the mantle from Tim Paine and has made Australia the most feared side once more. Indian players know the talent that Cummins brings to the table. Cummins is not only an able bowler but also more than capable with the bat lower down the order.

1- Travis Head

Left-handed batter Travis Head has been in top form in the last few years and become the most dangerous batter in the world. Head has been a constant thorn in the flesh of many Indian bowlers. His centuries in the two ICC event finals are still fresh in the memory of many fans.
