[ad_1] Matt Renshaw disappointed with the bat in the Nagpur Test© AFPRattled by a humiliating defeat against India in the first Test at Nagpur, the Australian cricket team needs to go back to the drawing board and craft a strategy to beat India in their own home.

While there's a good possibility of Head's return for the second Test in Delhi, former Australia captain Michael Clarke feels the Aussies have put themselves in a tough position.Clarke is of the opinion that Head should've been a part of Australia's playing XI in Nagpur. Had the batter not managed to score runs, Renshaw could've been picked to replace him. But now, Australia are staring at a...

[ad_1] Australia batter Matt Renshaw has conceded that spinner Ravichandran Ashwin will be one of the toughest bowlers to face in the four-Test series in India beginning February 9. With the Border-Gavaskar series set to begin in Nagpur, a lot of focus is on how the Pat Cummins-led Australia will face the Indian off-spinner, who made history in 2021 by becoming the first bowler to take 200 wickets of left-handers. With Australia's batting lineup packed with left-handers, including David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Travis Head, wicketkeeper Alex Carey and Renshaw himself, Ashwin could prove to be more than handful for the visitors during the high-profile series."Ashwin is difficult to face. He is a smart bowler with a lot of variations and he uses them very well, but you do get used to him onc...
