Australian media's work against indian players..!?
Former player sunil gavaskar has alleged that the Australian media is publishing news with the intention of intimidating the indian team. The Australian media was involved in a similar work before the Perth Test match in 2008. However. sunil gavaskar retaliated by saying that the indian team had won that match at that time. The indian team is touring australia to play a five-match Test series. Before this series, the indian team had lost three matches against New Zealand. However, the indian team won the first match in Perth by a margin of 295 runs and registered a huge Test victory against the Australian team. Therefore, the Australian team is under severe pressure now. If they do not win the next match, they will be at a disadvantage in the series.
 In this situation, the Australian media is constantly publishing news in a threatening manner, saying that the pitch at the adelaide Stadium, where the next match will be held, will be favorable for fast bowling and will have a lot of bounce, in order to intimidate the indian team. advertisement sunil gavaskar has written an article about this in a magazine. In it, he mentioned, "The Australian media is constantly publishing news about how the pitch will be, favorable for fast bowling and will have a lot of bounce, in order to intimidate the indian batsmen. The Australian players are not doing this. But the team's assistants are doing it (by giving bats). They are doing this work in print and modern media. They are trying to scare the indian team. This is something like what happened in the 2007-08 series. Then there was a controversy between harbhajan singh and Andrew Symonds in the Sydney Test match." "The next match, the Australian selection committee added Shaun Tait to the team. Then the Australian media wrote that Shaun Tait would blow india away in the next match in Perth. But india won that match." Gavaskar pointed out.
