Shardul Thakur opens up on difficulties faced by Indian team on Aus tour 2020-21

 The Indian cricketer Shardul Thakur recently opened up about the difficult and "horrible" treatment the Indian cricket team experienced during their 2020-21 tour of Australia. He revealed that the conditions were far from ideal, with the team facing several challenges, particularly concerning their accommodations. For instance, housekeeping services were often unavailable for several days, forcing players to handle tasks like changing their own bedsheets after long and exhausting days.


Shardul Thakur also criticized the former Australian captain Tim Paine, accusing him of lying to the media about the facilities provided to the Indian team, suggesting that the Australian side was trying to downplay the difficulties faced by the visitors. Additionally, he recounted how the Governor of Queensland made dismissive remarks about hosting the Indian team, further adding to the tension during the tour.

Despite these challenges, India managed to overcome the odds and secure a historic 2-1 series victory, famously breaching Australia's "fortress" at The Gabba. Thakur played a crucial role in this victory, particularly in the final Test, highlighting the resilience and determination of the Indian team despite the adverse conditions​.
