India's historic win in the Twins Test series in Australia was largely thanks to an impressive bowling line-up. However, the difference between Jasprit Bumrah and other bowlers was evident in the recent 3-1 defeat against Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. Bumrah led the way with 32 wickets in 151.2 overs at an average of 13.06 and a strike rate of 28.4, but was ahead of other players like Mohammad Siraj, Akash Deep, Prasid Krishna, Harshit Rana and Nitish. In 351 overs, the average and strike rate are 34.82 and 52.6 respectively. The inexperience of the pacers and the over-reliance on Bumrah cast doubt on India's fast bowling stock going forward. Sunil Joshi, former India spinner and India's chief selector in India's 2-1 series win in Australia in 2020-21, is optimistic about the fast bowling prospects, but I believe India will have a left-arm pacer in the lineup . We have Troy Cooley now, he's in the NCA, he looks after the fast bowling pool so I don't think we have to worry about that. Was."

“If the left-arm seamer had been there, the angle would have changed a little bit because a lot of Australian, English and New Zealand batsmen are not very comfortable with left-arm seamers. You received the ball from a different direction. The angle." Joshi recalled the 2020-21 series in which India had many players injured and said that the players who played as bowlers in the nets won the matches, apart from their performances. On The recent tour has left India a lot of room for improvement over the Australian batsmen in terms of tactics, fielding, bowling changes etc. For a player to perform well on tour, it is important that he shows his individuality on it prepared during this tour, from the first to the second and third test matches?

“I think so, because if we had learned something from our opponent, we could certainly have been better and more adaptable. If we hadn't done that... turn your attention to exploring it and advocating for it. “We need discipline” to see the big picture. Training and getting results was the idea behind the tour: "Tactically, that's how it is when things aren't going well." We just have to see what the other team did, for example they didn't do anything except Bumrah about you being slow – Nitish, Siraj, Harshit Rana. You don't look at your team from the outside. Did I do my part in such situations in a disciplined manner or was it meant to be? If you break them all, he explained.

Another development that surprised him during the tour to Australia was spinner Ravichandran Ashwin's sudden withdrawal from international football after the third Test ended in a draw at the Gabba, a match in which he did not play. “I was also very surprised” because we don’t know what happened between the second and third tests and what went well, but also because Schwinn made such a clear decision. “I mean we have to respect that because he is a modern legend of the game, there is no doubt about that. The board, the selection committee and the team management must respond to this.”
