Legendary Indian batter Sunil Gavaskar has said that India are making turning pitches so that their bowlers will be able to take 20 wickets in a test match. Speaking to India Today, Gavaskar said that India might have made more sporting wickets if Jasprit Bumrah was available to lead the Indian bowling attack.
India lost the third Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at Indore by 9 wickets on a pitch that turned square from the morning session of Day 1. India were bundled out for 109 runs in the first innings at the Holkar Stadium and played catch up ever since. The hosts posted a target of 76 runs in the final innings, which Australia were able to chase down with ease, courtesy of Travis Head’s 49*.
