A battle between two incredibly strong bowling attacks: Joe Burns on Ind-Oz Test series

Australian opener Joe Burns on Thursday said that his team's much-awaited home Test series against India later this year is primarily set to be a battle between "two incredibly strong bowling attacks".

Virat Kohli and Co. are scheduled to play four Tests in Australia in December-January, a series currently in doubt due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has claimed over 2.5 lakh lives across the world.

"I look at Australia and India as having two incredibly strong bowling attacks and that's what's going to be so exciting watching the two teams go at it," Burns told reporters in a video conference on Thursday.

India's attack would be spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, while Australia's pace attack would be led by world no.1 Pat Cummins.

Burns view is in sharp contrast to the focus of the overall hype, which is the batting of the two sides. India boast of the peerless Virat Kohli and a marauding Rohit Sharma, while Australia have been bolstered by the return of Steve Smith ..
