The Indian team has been in danger of suddenly disintegrating for some time now. The recent New Zealand Test series is the biggest example of this. The team's opening pair has also failed to give a good start. This threat will also be present in front of dangerous bowlers like Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood during the Border Gavaskar Trophy to be held in Australia. Especially surviving on the fast pitch of Perth can be a big challenge for the Indian batsmen. Former Australian cricketer Brad Haddin has already warned the entire team including Yashasvi Jaiswal for the Perth Test. Whereas former team captain Aaron Finch has described Rishabh Pant and Alex Carey as the X factor.

What do you say about Jaiswal?

Brad Haddin, who played 66 Tests for Australia, has discussed the Border Gavaskar Trophy with his teammate Aaron Finch. On the Listener Sports podcast, Haddin described the Perth pitch as dangerous. According to him, it will be difficult for Indian batsmen to survive there. He said, 'I don't think Indian batsmen are going to stand against our fast bowlers.'

Yashasvi Jaiswal has been the most successful Indian batsman for quite some time. He has batted brilliantly while opening and has scored the maximum runs for the team. Despite this, Haddin has doubts about his performance in Australia. He described Jaiswal as a good player but also expressed doubt over his ability to handle the bounce due to lack of experience. Haddin especially said about Perth that the job of opening is going to be difficult for Jaiswal.

Why Pant and Carey called X Factor?

Aaron Finch agreed with Brad Haddin's words but looking at the fast bowlers of the Indian team, he said that Australia's top order is also going to face problems. According to him, the top order of both the teams may disintegrate. In such a situation, the wicketkeepers of both the teams can prove to be the X factor. Finch said that the batting of Rishabh Pant at number 6 for the Indian team and the batting of Alex Carey at number 7 for Australia is going to be very important during the 5-match Test series. Because both the batsmen are very aggressive. His game can turn the tables.
