Delhi: India captain Rohit Sharma gave a befitting reply to the critics who are saying that the team has got the benefit of playing on the same ground (Dubai) in the Champions Trophy. However, former Australian cricketer Brad Hadin believes that India has melted itself well under Dubai circumstances. This will now put more pressure on them in the semi -finals. This match will be played against Australia on Tuesday.
‘Pressure more on India’
Hadin said on the “Willow Talk” podcast, “India has played every match at the same place. There the pitch is dry, not grass, which is favorable for India. But, now the pressure will also be on them. “
He further said, “India has played great cricket, but this is a knockout match. Australia is always known for giving its best performance in the big tournament. There is no pressure on Australia, but more on India. I think Australia can beat India under these circumstances. “
There will also be pressure on Gautam Gambhir
Hadin also spoke on coach Gautam Gambhir. He said, “India has not achieved the success since Gambhir became a coach, which was expected. The team’s game has not been as attractive in the last six months. Therefore, there is tremendous pressure on India. If he does not reach the finals, it will have a big impact. “
This match is also special for India because they would like to avenge the defeat from Australia in the final of the 2023 ODI World Cup.
