India vs Australia: Nathan McSweeney starts preparing for BGT by watching Jasprit Bumrah’s bowling videos


Nathan McSweeney is set to make his Test debut at Perth’s Optus Stadium on November 22 against India and he feels his biggest challenge is going to be Jasprit Bumrah.

The 25-year-old has started preparing accordingly by watching Bumrah’s videos but feels one can’t to much about the Indian bowler on the nets.

“I’ll definitely dive a lot deeper into it when I get to Perth, but I can’t help myself. I’ve looked at a few clips of what they’re bowling attack stacks up like,”McSweeney told SEN.

“I’m just trying to visualise how I’m going to go about it. Facing a new bowler can be a slight challenge to just pick up their action.

“I’ve got a whole week before I head off to Perth so I can get mentally ready and I guess it starts now in preparation to hopefully start really well.

“But there’s probably not (much you can do to replicate what Bumrah brings in the nets).

“Obviously he’s got a unique action, he’s one of the best bowlers in the world, so it’s going to be hard to mimic that, that’s for sure.

“I’m just looking forward to all of that and I can’t wait.”

The 25-year-old, who is in the red-hot form and led Australia A to series victory against India A recently says he is in his best shape and is eager to face the challenges in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

“I think I’m the best I’ve ever been prepared to take this opportunity, so hopefully I can do that.

“No doubt there’s plenty of learning and experiences that I haven’t experienced yet and I’m looking forward to learning all about the challenges of Test cricket and challenging my game against the very best.

“There’s plenty of learning to go and plenty of improvement I hope, but I definitely feel like this is the best I’ve played and I’m ready for the challenge.”
