Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje are expected to spit fire on a track that will offer steep bounce as India’s top-order gears up for its toughest test in adverse conditions against a top-notch South African side in T20 World Cup 2022 on Sunday (October 30) ). The match in all likelihood will decide the Group 2 topper and India’s probable semi-final venue.
The WACA has been the traditional venue for many decades but now the newly-built concrete jungle called Optus Stadium hosts the international games. While it looks like any other modern cricket stadium devoid of WACA’s old world charm, what is similar to both grounds is spicy nature of its track and the good bounce on offer that could make life difficult for batters.
In this backdrop, Rabada and Nortje, two of the world’s most fearsome speed merchants are expected to pose some tough questions for Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav. While Rabada will bowl full and get the bowl to seam and swing at 145 clicks, expect Nortje to mix it up with either back of length or the hard lengths at 150 plus speed.
Both Rohit and Virat are fabulous horizontal bat players and the Powerplay overs will be all about how well the hand-eye co-ordination of the top-order works. The extra pace off the track will give batters that split second less time to react and it will be interesting to see what will be the approach of the Indian batters.
