Perth’s Bradman may not spoil the match (Photo-Stephen Blackberry/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
Perth… that course in Australia that is famous around the world for its fast, bouncy pitch. The magic of the bowlers is visible on the pitch of this field. Batsmen face a lot of problems here because apart from pace, they also have to deal with extra bounce. Now the Indian team will face Australia at this ground in Perth. It will be very difficult for the Indian team to win this match because it is a different condition for them. On the one hand, in India the ball bounces less, on the other hand, in Perth the exact opposite is true. Not only Australia’s bowlers but also one of their batsmen it’s time for team India. That batsman is also called Bradman from Perth. The interesting thing is that he is not Steve Smith.
Team India escaped Perth’s Bradman
Perth’s Bradman’s name is Marnus Labuschagne, who shows a different type of play on this ground. You might be surprised to know that Labuschagne averages over 100 in this area. This player has scored 519 runs in 3 matches in Perth with an average of 103.80. Labuschagne scored 3 centuries in 3 matches in Perth. He has played innings of 50+ runs 4 times in 6 innings. His best score in this field is 204 runs. These figures from Labuschagne are clearly a red flag for Team India. Now the big question here is who will sack this player in Perth?
I’ll also have to stay away from Smith.
Not only Labuschagne but also Steve Smith bats amazingly on the Perth pitch. This right-handed batsman has scored 962 runs in 8 matches at an average of 74 in Perth. Smith has accumulated 4 centuries on this ground. His best score is 239 runs. Apart from Smith, Usman Khawaja also scored 551 runs in Perth at an average of 55.10, which includes a century and five and a half centuries. It is clear that Australia’s top 3 batsmen are scoring runs in Perth. Team India would also know this and is expected to soon have prepared a plan to get rid of these three.
