During 2020-21 Australia tour Shardul Thakur shared India’s experience
Theall-rounder of team India Shardul Thakur recently came forward to reveal the harsh treatment that the Indian team endured during their tour of Australia in 2020–21. Despite the adversity, India managed to clinch a historic 1-2 series win against the Aussies. The story of India’s tour to Australia in 2020–21 is one that defied all odds, as after a humiliating defeat in the first Test in Adelaide, they staged a perfect comeback and won the second Test in Melbourne before drawing the third in Sydney.
India won the series with a historic victory at the Gabba. However, it was not easy going for the visitors, as revealed by Shardul. The all-round player talked candidly about the difficulties India had on their journey. "The way they treated us was very horrible," Shardul remarked. For four or five days there won’t be any housekeeping services in the hotel.
If you wanted to change your bed linens, you would need to climb four or five flights of steps. Come change it and take care of yourself when you're exhausted. He also said, our coach Ravi Shastri, Virat had left, Ajinkya was leading. To obtain what we wanted, they both engaged in constant conflict with the Australian Cricket Board. Yes, it was difficult the whole tour. Injuries kept happening.
In the most recent game, [Navdeep] Saini sustained an injury. [T] Natarajan also got injured. And I bowled nine overs apiece with [Mohammed] Siraj in the second inning. And for the first time ever, after we won, we told the Australians to go ahead and relax in their dressing room without even looking at them.
