New Delhi: A four-match Test series is going to be played between India and Australia (India vs Australia Test Series) from 9 February. The first match of this series will be played in Nagpur. Before this Border Gavaskar series, Australia’s star batsman Steve Smith has given a big warning to India. He said that he likes playing on the spin pitches of India.
Smith said about India, “I think some wickets in the subcontinent suit my style of play. I really enjoy playing on those spinning tracks, it’s a lot of fun and there’s always something happening. But you know, if they’re not spinning and they’re a bit flat, then you’ve got to be a big scorer there. That’s definitely one thing I’ll tell the boys when we get there. This is my experience and you can only play according to the pitch in front of you.
