Perth…that ground in Australia which is famous all over the world for its fast and bouncy pitch. The magic of the bowlers is visible on the pitch of this ground. Batsmen face a lot of trouble here because along with pace, they also have to face extra bounce. Now the Indian team is going to face Australia on this Perth ground. It will be very difficult for Team India to win this match because this is a different kind of condition for them. On one hand, in India the ball bounces less, on the other hand in Perth it is exactly the opposite. Not only Australia’s bowlers but also one of its batsmen is equal to Team India. That batsman is also called Bradman of Perth. The interesting thing is that he is not Steve Smith.
Team India escaped from Bradman of Perth
The name of Perth’s Bradman is Marnus Labuschagne who shows a different kind of game on this ground. You will be surprised to know that Labuschagne has an average of more than 100 on this ground. This player has scored 519 runs in 3 matches in Perth at an average of 103.80. Labuschagne has scored 3 centuries in 3 matches in Perth. He has played innings of more than 50 runs 4 times in 6 innings. His best score on this ground is 204 runs. These figures of Labuschagne are clearly an alarm bell for Team India. Now the big question here is who will get this player out in Perth?
Will have to stay away from Smith also
Not only Labuschagne but Steve Smith also bats amazingly on the Perth ground. This right-handed batsman has scored 962 runs in 8 matches at an average of 74 in Perth. Smith has scored 4 centuries on this ground. His best score is 239 runs. Apart from Smith, Usman Khawaja has also scored 551 runs in Perth at an average of 55.10, which includes one century and 5 half-centuries. It is clear that Australia’s top 3 batsmen score runs in Perth. Team India would also know this and it is expected that it would have prepared a plan to dispose of these three soon.
