The fourth Test between India and Australia will be played from 26 December. In this match to be held in Melbourne, eyes will be on Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill. Both these players have been failing in the last two test matches and Cheteshwar Pujara has given them special advice to ensure that both of them do not fail in Melbourne. Cheteshwar Pujara told how Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaswal can score runs in Melbourne. Pujara warned both the batsmen that the pitch could be green in Melbourne too, hence shot selection and releasing the ball would be important.
Cheteshwar Pujara said in a special conversation with Star Sports, 'The ball will move a little more in Melbourne. Looking at the series, it seems that there will be a little more grass in Melbourne. The new ball will have to be looked at, it will have to be made old. Like KL Rahul has done in this series. Yashasvi and Shubman should learn from KL Rahul. Play the ball close to the body and leave the balls outside. If you are driving the ball then it is important to choose the right ball and length. Instead of hitting the ball, just try to time it.

Talking about Yashasvi Jaiswal, he had made a good start in this tournament. He scored a brilliant century and scored 161 runs in the Perth Test. After this the bad times of this player started. He could not open his account in Adelaide and scored 24 runs in the second innings. In the Brisbane Test, he was out after scoring four runs, while in the second innings he scored 4 unbeaten runs. Overall, this series has been a mixed bag for Jaiswal.
Shubman Gill could not play the first test due to injury but in the second test, this player could not finish well despite starting in both the innings. He scored 31 runs in the first innings of Adelaide Test. In the second innings he was out after scoring 28 runs. In Brisbane he could score only 8 runs.
