Sydney, Feb 3 (CRICKETNMORE) All-rounder Glenn Maxwell on Friday said Australia's forthcoming four-Test tour of India later this month, will be a real test for each player.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Maxwell, who has played for several Indian Premier League (IPL) franchises, and by his own admission is eyeing to cement the No.6 spot in the line-up, said the visitors need to improve their shot selection to tackle India's spin attack.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"You've got to be adaptable and you've got to be able to change your game almost mid-innings. So, it's going to be a real test for everyone," Maxwell was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"Even for the Indian players, you watch them, they go through different stages of their innings from sweeping, to using their feet, to playing off the back-foot -- they change all the way through their innings."<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"Hopefully, we can do similar stuff and work on our play of spin because it's going to be pretty key," he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The 28-year-old, currently in New Zealand with the One-Day International squad for the Chappell-Hadlee series, also pointed out that one has to prepare multiple strategies to be successful in Indian conditions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"I'm not sure it's a place you ever really feel comfortable. It's a place where you've got to work so hard to get your runs, and you've got to have different strategies at different times of a game," the 28-year-old said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

"That's probably what I've learned, you can't go in there with just one strategy and stick to it," he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The first of the four Tests will be played from February 23 in Pune.<\/p>\r\n", "image": "https:\/\/img.cricketnmore.com\/uploads\/2017\/02\/glenn-maxwell24.jpg", "alt_img": "Image forIndia tour will be real test for Australia, says Glenn Maxwell", "alt_title": "Australian Maxwell All-rounder Glenn Maxwell", "image1": "", "video": "", "seo_title": "India tour will be real test for Australia: Maxwell", "seo_desc": "Sydney, Feb 3 (CRICKETNMORE) All-rounder Glenn Maxwell on Friday said Australia's forthcoming four-Test tour of India later this month, will be a real test for", "seo_keywords": "Glenn Maxwell, Australian Cricket Team, India vs Australia", "tag": "", "tagging": "", "status": "1", "img_rpt": "0", "google": "0", "standout": "0", "edapps": "0", "pulse": "0", "no_index": "0", "feed": "0", "fixture": "0", "slug": "india-tour-will-be-real-test-for-australia-says-glenn-maxwell", "user_id": "0", "read_count": "0", "ians_date": "0000-00-00", "ians_time": "00:00:00", "server_time": "0000-00-00 00:00:00", "trash": "0", "view_count": "2690", "page_break": "0", "instant_articles": "0", "auto_link": "0", "created": "2017-02-03 17:31:00", "updated": "2017-02-03 17:31:00", "img_from": "", "img_source": "", "schedule_publish": "0000-00-00 00:00:00", "news_keywords": null, "livescore_text": null, "livescore_link": null, "btn_text": null, "resend_feed": "0", "google_feed": "0", "read_more": "0", "posted_by": "1", "jio_date": "2017-02-03 17:31:00", "scheduled": "0", "news_now": "1", "breaking_news": "0", "google_date": "2017-02-03 17:31:00", "featured": "0", "pred_match_id": null, "article_content_type": null, "link": "https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/india-tour-will-be-real-test-for-australia-says-glenn-maxwell-23557" }
