IND vs AUS Pitch Report
Ahead of the match, Western Australia Cricket head curator Isaac McDonald said, “This is Australia, this is Perth… I’m setting ourselves up for really good pace, really good bounce, and really good carry.”
Notably, McDonald is working to replicate the same pitch conditions from the first Test against Pakistan back in December 2023. During that match, the surface provided enough pace and bounce, which proved to be a significant test for the batters. Aside from that, McDonald also revealed plans to leave grass on the pitch to offer more speed on the pitch.
