The Indian team is practicing match-like practice in Perth before the match against Australia on November 22. On the first day, the team's batsmen mainly participated. During this, Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and many other players batted. On the second day, it was the turn of the bowlers. On the second day of practice, Jasprit Bumrah started the spell against the India A batsmen. Abhimanyu Easwaran and Devdutt Padikkal opened the innings. During this, Team India's game plan against Australia was also seen along with a new weapon.

During the ongoing practice session between Team India and India A in Perth, Jaspreet Bumrah started bowling from one end. Harshit Rana supported him from the other end. During this, a barrage of short balls and bouncers was seen from Harshit Rana. Seeing his spell, it is being speculated that Team India can use him as a new weapon against Australia.

On the bouncy and fast pitch of Perth, he can be fielded with a short-ball strategy to trouble the Australian batsmen. He bowled a lot of bouncers in his spell. Although he hit a six but overall his performance was impressive. Rana dismissed two batsmen.

Abhimanyu Easwaran and Devdutt Padikkal came as the opening pair for India A to face Jasprit Bumrah and Harshit Rana. Easwaran once again left early. Let us tell you that both the players had also played a match against Australia A and so far they have been flops on this tour. He is also a part of Team India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The report of the Perth practice session revealed that Rituraj Gaikwad batted well on the second day. He hit a total of 4 sixes, including 2 off Ashwin's ball, 1 off Harshit Rana's ball, and 1 off Manav Suthar's ball. He batted for one and a half hours and then gave Sarfaraz Khan a chance to practice.

The batsmen failed on the first day.

On the first day, Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul came to open. Both started aggressively but Jaiswal fell prey to his aggression and lost his wicket on 15 runs. Rahul had batted well and tackled the short ball quite well but he got injured by a bouncer from Prasidh Krishna, after which he had to leave the field.

On the other hand, Virat Kohli had a good start but he repeated the old mistake and got out at second slip while trying to drive on the score of 15 runs. Shubman Gill spent two hours at the crease. But after this he lost his patience and got out after scoring 28 runs.
