Former India opener Abhinav Mukund identified Adam Zampa and Mitchell Starc as the two biggest threats to India. Speaking about Zampa, the Tamil Nadu batter advised the Indian team to take the attack to the leg-spinner, noting that he isn’t a huge turner of the ball.
“I think Adam Zampa and Mitchell Starc will be the biggest threats to India. The way Zampa has bowled against India, not necessarily in the IPL, but when he turns up for Australia, he’s a different beast altogether. I think it’s because of the way he’s used and the protection he has from the seamers around him. If they’ve got Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins, and Josh Hazlewood, I think Adam Zampa becomes even more crucial,” Mukund said in a conversation on JioCinema’s ‘Home of the Blues’.
“He’s always bowled well against India. He’s bowled well against Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. I feel India should take on Zampa more and understand that he’s not a big turner of the ball. He’s brought in a variation of a googly of late, but it’s more of a toppy, like how Yuzvendra Chahal bowls it,” Mukund further added.
