Gavaskar acknowledged that the batters wanted the follow recreation in Australia, particularly given their struggles at dwelling towards New Zealand.
“To be truthful, the Indians did rating over 400 within the second innings (of the primary Check) in Bangalore, however after that, in 4 innings they appeared totally clueless towards a spin assault that by no stretch of creativeness was so harmful that India could not chase 150 within the fourth innings. Sure, there was activate supply, however once more the pitches weren’t unimaginable to play on,” he mentioned.
“That’s the reason the cancellation of the crew’s warm-up recreation in Perth towards the India ‘A’ crew beggars perception. There isn’t a higher feeling for a batter to spend trip within the centre and really feel the ball hit the center of the bat. No quantity of internet follow is ever going to switch that feeling of circulate and bat velocity that one will get even after a brief keep on the crease.”
Gavaskar emphasised the significance of enjoying in actual follow matches over simply going through bowlers in internet periods.

The batters know that within the nets they are often dismissed three or extra occasions and but proceed to bat after which play with no pressure or stress in any respect. So temperamentally, it is by no means going to be the identical as enjoying in a correct match,” he mentioned.
“For the bowlers too, moving into a correct rhythm with run-up and get assured about not overstepping is essential. What line and size to bowl can be one thing that one can study in a correct recreation and never within the nets.”
