Test spinner: Australia was outplayed by the hosts in both of the first two Test matches in the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Australia has little opportunity to win the two games thanks to India. After the Australian batting order collapsed in the second innings, they won the first game by innings and 132 runs and the second game by six wickets.
Todd Murphy performance in this series, who made his debut in the first Test at the age of 22, has been Australia’s lone bright spot. In the first Test, Murphy took seven wickets, and in the second, he took three. According to former Australian pacer Brett Lee, if Murphy continues to put in these types of efforts, he may end up being Australia’s top spinner.
“After Nathan Lyon, who? Todd Murphy, a famous off-spinner who is only 22 years old, appears to be their solution. What a thrilling start for Australia. Despite Australia’s massive defeat, Todd Murphy’s performance made the world take notice,” In a video posted to his YouTube page, Brett Lee commented.
“He recorded a 7/124 in Australia’s lone innings of bowling. KL Rahul, Ravi Ashwin, Pujara, Virat Kohli, and Ravi Jadeja each claimed five wickets. What a debut of a lifetime. He did this in front of his family who had travelled from Nagpur,” he added.
Also, Brett Lee discussed Todd Murphy’s relationship with Shane Warne.
Also, Brett Lee discussed the parallels between Todd Murphy and Shane Warne. Warne and the 22-year-father olds once played domestic cricket together. After his five-wicket haul against India, Lee predicted that Murphy will always be in the public eye.
“Todd Murphy, according to his father, possesses Shane Warne’s sense of discovery. It’s a bold call, and he’ll be put to the test at this level in the future, but after becoming the 35th Australian to take five wickets in his debut, the limelight would follow him throughout this series and in the years to come,” lee said.
