There was a lot of anticipation for the 4-Test series between India and Australia. While this series was expected to be a tight contest, the Australian team did not perform as well. In the first 2 Tests, they bowed out to India and lost the chance to win the series. Now, the team is forced to fight to avoid being whitewashed.
Realizing that spin is the most important weapon to win Test matches on spin-friendly pitches in India, the Australian team came to India with 4 spinners namely Nathan Lyon, Todd Murphy, Kunnemann and Ashton Agar and made a mistake in team selection in the first Test. The team’s spinners performed well in the 2nd Test. The Australian team, which has been somewhat adept at using spin, has struggled against the Indian spinners.

As the Australian team lost in the first 2 Test matches, the strategies of the Australian team, the performance of the Australian players and the selection of the team came under severe criticism. While many former players have criticized the Australian team, Glenn Maxwell has given his support saying that the Australian team put up a good fight.
Speaking about this, Glenn Maxwell said, I think the Australian players fought hard. Don’t criticize for not playing well in one session. Dancing in India is not easy; Very difficult. India will be a challenging condition for Australia to play in. I think we fought hard except for 2 moments. We have played a lot with India. Indian players will give tough fight.

In the 2nd Test in Delhi, we were in a good position when the game started on the 3rd day. When you dominate the game you have to do the right thing and not let the moment go. It should be played properly for a long time. “We failed to do that,” Maxwell said.
