Every time a SENA country tours India for a Test series, talk about pitches takes precedence. India have always used their home advantage and dished out tracks that support spin bowling. Ahead of the 2023 Border-Gavaskar Trophy, former Australian players once again took potshots at Indian pitches.

Former England spinner Monty Panesar feels that India should employ spinning tracks and not give away their advantage. Panesar played a huge part in England's Test series win over India back in 2012-12 under Sir Alastair Cook's captaincy. 

Taking to Twitter, the left-arm spinner backed India to produce spinning wickets. 

Here's what Panesar wrote

"India should look to produce turning wickets and the ball begins to turn on Day two. Home advantage is crucial for India to win the Test series. 🔥🔥#INDvsAUS."

The Australian team will reach Nagpur today after their pre-series preparatory camp in Alur, where they practiced against local and domestic spinners.  '

Australia will be without Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood in the first Test and will have to field either Scott Boland or Lance Morris, with Pat Cummins as the front-line pace bowler. 

Meanwhile, the Indian team already are undergoing their training camp in Nagpur at the old Jamtha Stadium.

The first Test will be hosted at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium.
