IND vs AUS Nagpur Test pitch mood
According to the pitch pundits, Nagpur’s pitch can support the batting on the first 2 days of the Test match. The first innings batting is expected to be high scoring. The average score can be 310-350 runs in the first two days. But, the nature of the pitch (Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium, Nagpur) suggests that from the third day the pitch can favor spin bowlers and spinners can wreak havoc on the batsmen. In view of this, both the teams can give place to 3-4 spin bowlers in their playing XI.
