The India Cricket Team has been horrible on Day 3 of the IND vs AUS 3rd Test in Gabba. Former India cricketer Deep Dasgupta has slandered the visitors asking them about their intent and attitude. He went on to question the flat attitude of the team which saw the top-order crumble yet again as India was reduced to 44/4.
Australia went on to pile up a massive total of 445 runs in the first innings. In reply, India’s top order crumbled entirely. Ace batters Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Rishabh Pant were dismissed on single digits. Deep Dasgupta revealed that conditions like these result in huge pressure on the middle-order batters.
Deep Dasgupta slanders India for Poor Attitude
“Let’s jog your mind to the first half an hour of the day. How flat were India on the field. I was a bit concerned back then and now it is kind of manifesting itself now. That attitude and that mindset has seeped into India’s batting innings. It’s not an individual one but a team sport. It seems like everyone is on their own right now,” Deep Dasgupta told Star Sports.
“At times, I also feel bad for the middle-order batters. Whether it is Virat, Rishabh Pant or Rohit Sharma. You can’t ask them to come and bat in that first 10 overs almost every innings in these testing conditions. There’s a reason why they’re middle-order batters. There are openers, there is a top 3. Their job in these conditions is to control your natural instincts. You will get chances to play those shots,” said Dasgupta.
The rain has been playing spoilsport throughout the day. Day 3 of the Gabba Test saw the game getting postponed for a record 6th time. In the meantime, it is the hosts who continue to dominate proceedings.
“If you want our middle-order to bat like Travis Head, then give them the opportunity and platform. Apart from the 2nd innings in Perth, that middle order hasn’t got that opportunity,” concluded. Dasgupta.
