Scott Boland’s entry in Australia for pink ball test
Now the pink ball test between India and Australia is getting closer. This will be the second match of the 5 Test match series, which is to be held in Adelaide from 6th December. By winning the first match, the Indian team has taken the lead in the series, while the Australian team has lagged behind. After the defeat, Australia has suffered another blow, the team’s star fast bowler Josh Hazlewood has been ruled out of the second match of the series. Meanwhile, a new player has entered the team. Although Josh Hazlewood is a very lethal bowler, but Scott Boland is no less. He has also played against India and was successful in taking wickets also.
Scott Boland has played ten tests so far
Scott Boland is almost 35 years old, but he has not got a chance to play many test matches. He has played 10 Tests so far and taken 35 wickets in his name. He has also managed to take four wickets once and five wickets once. Australia has such a large army of fast bowlers that Boland does not get many opportunities. He got a chance to start his Test career only in the year 2021. After the year 2023, he will be seen in action once again.
The match was played against India in Pune and Oval
Scott Boland has played only two matches against India so far. In this, he has 5 wickets in his name. Which can be called a good performance. He got a chance to play against India for the first time in Nagpur in February 2023. He did not get any success then. But got a chance to play against India in overs only in the year 2023. Then he took two wickets in the first innings. He had shown the way to the pavilion to Shubhman Gill and Shrikar Bharat. After this, he took three wickets in his account in the second innings of the same match. In the second innings of the match, along with Shubman Gill, he also dismissed Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja.
Boland can become a threat to Shubman Gill
He has managed to dismiss Shubman Gill twice so far. After missing the first test, Shubman Gill may return in the second test. In such a situation, Shubman Gill will have to stay away from Boland. Although he used to open when Shubman was out twice off the bowling of Boland, now he will come to bat at number three. However, the good thing for India is that Boland has not played any Test for a long time, so he will not be in the same rhythm as Josh Hazlewood was. The Indian team can take advantage of this. Meanwhile, it is certain that this match between India and Australia will be very interesting.
