Australia suffered a crushing defeat by 295 runs in the first test against India. After this defeat, there has been pressure on the Australian cricket team. Now the media there has fiercely targeted Pat Cummins and his players. A Perth newspaper even declared Australia’s defeat as the death of Australian cricket. Famous anchor Jatin Sapru, who is doing commentary in Perth, has posted a video on social media in which he told how the Australian media has slammed the Kangaroos after this defeat.
Pressure on Australian team
Australian newspaper The West Australian strongly criticized its team after the defeat in Perth. This newspaper criticized the batting of Marnus Labuschagne and also asked the question why Pat Cummins’s team is continuously losing to Team India at home. Jatin Sapru said in the video, ‘I don’t know whether such headlines are published daily in Australian newspapers or not, but I know that in 1882, a news was published in an English newspaper, after which the Ashes series was born. But now after a defeat, this report has been published in an Australian newspaper in which Perth’s defeat has been described as the death of Australian cricket. This is also printed in the newspaper – the same old Australian. Meaning, it seems as if Australia has become a habit of losing against Team India.

Team India has defeated Australia in the last four Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Australia has not won a Test series from India for 10 years. Team India also won the last two Australian tours and the way it has started in Perth, it seems that this time also Team India will hoist the flag of victory.
Will there be changes in Australia’s team?

Captain Pat Cummins had also said that it would be a surprise for him if he sees a change in the team in the next Test. The next test will be held in Adelaide from 6 December.
