India's upcoming marquee five-match Test series against Australia, starting on November 22 in Perth, comes on the heels of an unprecedented 3-0 defeat to New Zealand, their first home Test series loss in 12 years.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"That was absolutely remarkable from New Zealand. And congratulations to Tom (Latham) and the guys there. I look back at that first Test that they played and they took some amazing catches and that sets the tone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"If you are taking catches like that and you get that upper hand and you lead the series one-nil, it\u2019s big. I know how tough it is to win over there. What they\u2019ve just done is absolutely outstanding, and credit to them.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"And it helps the Australian guys. They\u2019re coming out here after being beaten at home three-nil for five Tests against the Australian boys, (who have) three world class quicks and a world class spin bowler, and I\u2019d be nervous if I\u2019m in they\u2019re batting order. I would be nervous,\" said Warner to Fox Sports.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
He also feels the Australian top-order needs to find a way to counter Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj, while believing pacer Mohammed Shami may yet feature in the series at some point despite not being named in the initial squad due to his ongoing ankle injury recovery.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"The Australian top order\u2026 needs to make runs. They\u2019ve got Mohammed Shami, who\u2019s currently on the road to recovery with the knee - he potentially could be out here with the team - (and) you have Bumrah and Siraj who are their spearheads.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I think if Australia can get through those two gentlemen, there could be some big runs put on the board. But \u2026 we\u2019re going to have to come out with our chest out against India. We have lost our last two series here against India (and) they have got a lot to play for.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Warner signed off by cautioning the quartet of captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will be itching to put their best foot forward in Australia as they approach the twilight of their careers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
