The first Test match between India and Australia is to start from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth and the Indian team has started preparations for it. On Tuesday, Indian players were seen practicing in the nets but this practice is being done secretly. Yes, don't be surprised, the news and pictures coming from Perth are really surprising. The Indian players, who reached Australia on Monday, practiced on Tuesday but a black cloth was also put up where the preparations were going on.

Team India wore black clothes?

Team India is practicing at an academy in Perth and everything is visible from the road nearby. But according to Australian media reports, the boundary of the academy has been covered with black cloth so that now no one will be able to keep an eye on Team India's practice session. The question is why has Team India done this? It is possible that this may have been done to avoid the Australian media.

The WACA nets are covered from public view. Which, of course, means India are in town.

Australian media has its eyes on Team India. Obviously she is telling a story on the strengths and weaknesses of every player. Besides, he will also keep a close eye on Team India's net sessions and its preparations, which will help the Australian team in some way or the other. It is possible that Team India might have taken this step to avoid this. However, Australian journalists claim that when Team India came to the WACA ground in 2022, the same was done. Even during the T20 World Cup, Team India covered the boundary wall with black cloth before practice.
