The legendary Australian wicketkeeper Adam Gilchrist is excited to see the big fights between the two best pace bowling sides at present as the hosts Australia and the visitors India are going to meet very soon in the bilateral clashes.

From November 21, the visitors India will play the three-match T20I series, four-match Test series and three-match ODI series against the hosts Australia. Both teams are the top bowling sides in the present international cricket, especially in the Test and ODI formats. Gilchrist feels Indian pace attack is going to be an intriguing part of the upcoming series.

The former Aussie wicketkeeper-batsman told ESPNcricinfo, “Hard to tell (how they will fare) as they haven’t been here as a group and we have to find that out. That’s going to be an intriguing part of the series. Because Australian pace bowling unit has proven they are exceptional in Australian conditions.

“But I am really excited from an Indian point of view about that pace bowling unit and they have shown glimpses in England about their ability to rip through potential batting line-ups. They are fit, strong, aggressive young men so they have all virtues to take on Australia in Australia.”

While the Indian skipper Virat Kohli is the best batsman in the present world cricket and the Australian left-arm pacer Mitchell Starc is known as the top-class pacer in the international cricket, Gilchrist doesn’t see the Test series as only the Starc vs Virat fight.

Gilchrist added, “I don’t see this as a Starc vs Virat challenge really. I think Pat Cummins is outstanding and Josh Hazlewood is almost McGrath like with his methodic, repetitious bowling. So there are three guys there and there are a couple in the wings. They are high quality fast bowlers.

“So yeah, I don’t intend to single out Virat although clearly he is the best player at the moment, so India will look to him to score heavily, but they are all going to have their challenges which is also true for Australian batting line-up.”
