Indian pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj tested the Indian batters’ technique and temperament in the match simulation on Day 2 at WACA, Perth.
One of those days when the Indian pacers got a chance to get accustomed to the Aussie conditions ahead of the first Test at Optus Stadium in Perth, the limelight was on them.

The conditions were harsh for the batters, and Bumrah put Abhimanyu Easwaran and Devdutt Padikkal’s temperament to test with the new ball. Siraj also had a go at the full throttle to make amends for a disappointing home Test season.
The BCCI posted a video on its social media account showing a simulation of the match in which Indian head coach Gautam Gambhir kept a close eye on the players.
