Australia 300 all out on day one in fourth Test vs India
Dharamsala: Visiting team Australia were today all out on 300 runs on very first day in one of the fourth and final Test against host India at Dharamsala.
Earlier, the skipper of Australia team Steven Smith won the toss and decided to bat first in the fourth Test against host India at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium.
In this game Indian team s playing without captain Virat Kohli due to injury in his shoulder which suffered in the third Test at Ranchi.
At his place Ajinkya Rahane will lead the host team in decider Test.
Interestingly, the hosts made a couple of changes to their line-up, replacing fast bowler Ishant Sharma with fellow pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar while left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav was introduced as a replacement for Kohli.
On other hand, the Australians named an unchanged line-up and will field the same players who did duty during the third Test.
The Teams:
Team India: Lokesh Rahul, Murali Vijay, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane (C), Karun Nair, Ravichandran Ashwin, Wriddhiman Saha , Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Umesh Yadav.
Australian Team: David Warner, Matt Renshaw, Steven Smith (C), Shaun Marsh, Peter Handscomb, Glenn Maxwell, Matthew Wade, Patt Cummins, Steven O’Keefe, Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood.
The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.
Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.
Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”
Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
