Durban Test mein South Africa ki dhajjiya udane ke baad ab Australia ki nazar dusre Test par hai. Lekin sabse bada sawal yahi hai ki kya Cameron Green wapas aayenge? Khari baat ye hai ki Australia is waqt ek aisi machine lag rahi hai jise farq nahi padta ki kaun khel raha hai, kyunki unka system Masterclass level par set hai.
To Hua esa hai ki:
Durban mein mili shandaar jeet ke baad Coach Andrew McDonald ne update diya hai ki Cameron Green abhi bhi recovery mode mein hain. Unhe ODI series ke dauran abdominal injury hui thi aur abhi tak unhone batting start nahi ki hai. Halanki wo outfield mein running karte dikhe hain, lekin unki availability par abhi bhi "Wait and Watch" wali situation hai. Coach ne saaf kar diya hai ki agar Cameron Green khelte bhi hain, to wo sirf batting karenge, bowling ka load unhe nahi diya jayega.
Doosri taraf, Josh Inglis ne nets mein wapsi kar li hai. Finger fracture ke baad unka lautna Australia ke liye ek bada boost hai. Sam Harper abhi bhi squad ke saath hain as a back-up, lekin focus ab Josh Inglis ki intensity par hoga. Matt Renshaw ne pichle match mein jo 272 runs banaye hain, usne selectors ka kaam aasaan bhi kar diya hai aur mushkil bhi. Agar Cameron Green fit hote hain, to kise drop kiya jayega? Beau Webster shayad firing line mein ho sakte hain, lekin Captain Pat Cummins ka manna hai ki batting order flexible rehna chahiye.
Analysis & Numbers
- Matt Renshaw ne Durban mein dono innings milakar 272 runs thoke, jo ki unka Test career ka sabse bada statement hai.
- Mitchell Starc ne 33 overs, Josh Hazlewood ne 32.5, aur Pat Cummins ne 29 overs phenke: workload management ab agla bada challenge hai.
- Cameron Green August mein Bangladesh ke khilaaf Australia ke best batter rahe the, isliye unki jagah middle order mein fix hai agar wo 100 percent fit hote hain.
- Nathan Lyon ki control bowling ne fast bowlers ka kaam 40 percent tak aasaan kar diya hai.
The Guru Gyan Verdict:
Australia is pure Dominance right now. Unka mindset clear hai: player se bada team ka plan hai. Idhar hamare padosi Pakistan ko dekh lijiye, agar unka koi main player chotil ho jaye to poora board aur management rona shuru kar deta hai. PCB ko Cricket Australia se seekhna chahiye ki bench strength kaise build karte hain. Matt Renshaw ko drop karna is waqt crime hoga, chahe Cameron Green kitne hi bade superstar kyun na hon. Agar Green bowling nahi kar sakte, to Renshaw is a better option in this form.
