Former Australia fast bowler Brett Lee has given advice to Indian captain Rohit Sharma and star batsman Virat Kohli ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Brett Lee has asked Rohit and Kohli to stay away from cricket for some time.
Both the batsmen failed in the recently played New Zealand series. India lost the Test series 3-0. Both were heavily criticized after this. That said, the five-match Test series starting November 22 should be a fresh start, for which both should take some time away from cricket. The first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be played at the Perth Stadium from November 22.
India was trying to dominate too much Brett Lee said on his YouTube channel, Before the series started, there was talk that India would win 3-0 against New Zealand. I also predicted 3-0, but it didn't happen. Many questions are being raised regarding India's batting. I think India were trying to dominate too much by playing shots that were different from their normal style of cricket.'
The Australian fast bowlers will attack Rohit with the new ball He continued, “If you look at Hitman (Rohit) and King Kohli, they scored 90-90 runs in the series. These are not the runs of a player like him. He is a much better player than them. When you don't make consistent runs, the pressure can build up. I think now Virat and Rohit should work on their technique, freshen up, stay away from cricket as much as possible and then go to Australia and take the field, because I can promise you, these Australian fast bowlers are new to Rohit. Will attack with the ball.'
Australia have not beaten India since 2014-15 The Australian team could not beat India in the last 4 Border-Gavaskar series. The team's last win came in the 2014-15 season. Then the Australian team led by Steve Smith defeated India 2-0. In the subsequent four series, the Indian team won 2-1.
