With first Test ton since 2019, a Kohli message: His story still in the making

[ad_1] IND vs AUS: ON A strangely overcast day, about an hour after noon, with Virat Kohli on 99 and Nathan Lyon starting a fresh over, the clouds miraculously parted for the sun to shine over the giant bowl of the stadium. The stage was set for the world to see Virat Kohli in a better light. Those in the higher tiers ran down the stairs for a closer view of Kohli reaching a Test hundred, the moment for which India had waited for three-and-a-half years. Fearing that the daring among the frenzied crowd might jump over the fence to give Kohli a bearhug, the security staff, with their walkie-talkies held close to their mouths, stood in attention. Close to 45,000 had opted to spend their Sunday at the Narendra Modi Stadium with the hope that Kohli, unbeaten on 59 at stumps on Saturday, would...

IND vs AUS: Cameron Green puts blues behind, flattens India with maiden ton

[ad_1] Usman Khawaja oozed serenity for 611 minutes for his 180, the longest Test innings by an Australian, but without the assistance from the maiden centurion Cameron Green (114), Australia wouldn’t perhaps find themselves at such a strong position at the end of Day 2, ending their first innings on 480. With spin out of equation on this pitch, India reverted to trying to reprise their old plan against Green that they had successfully employed in Australia. Albeit with Mohammad Siraj. Back then, Green had shown susceptibility to two kinds of deliveries: the one that angled back into him to threaten the lbw, as he could be caught in the crease, just pushing his hands out. And when he would open up his stance to tackle that, Siraj would get one to straighten on a length to take the edge. ...

Sunil Gavaskar’s tips for India’s batsmen on turning tracks: Light bottom hand on the bat, bend a little

[ad_1] IND vs AUS: By evening, after a harsh sun had beat down on the pitches at the stadium, a dust storm blew across Ahmedabad. Lightning streaked the sky that turned grey. Street dogs began to howl, and one mad dog sunk its teeth into the calf of a teenager at a bazaar. It felt like a scene from a retro movie poster. Indian batsmen would do well to seek some retro help of their own. If the performance analyst can grab hold of a VHS cassette of Sunil Gavaskar’s classic 96 from his last Test on a minefield in Bangalore against Pakistan – even YouTube has a decent one-hour version, and have them watch it, a method to bat can bubble up. Gavaskar has a suggestion, as told to this newspaper, and we shall come to it shortly but first the context. Two errors have been noticeable. When they ha...
