The Australian media on several occasions has taken a jibe at the Indian players since the T20 matches. The defeat at Perth, sledging incidents and the on-field banter have further given a chance to the Australian media to lash out at the visitors. But now, former Indian captain has issued a stern warning to the Australian media and has reminded them that a couple of Test matches are yet to be played and the visitors could bounce back in the next Test and shut their critics. Sourav Ganguly Talks About his Unsent Message to Virat Kohli Which Could Have Helped India Win Perth Test. 

“Lots of talk going around in media specially Australian .. watch out for india against this australia ..still two tests to go and india can win both.. don’t go too far ahead everyone @bcci,” read the tweet by Sourav Ganguly. Prior to this Ganguly had even spoken about the message which remained unsent to Virat Kohli during the second Test match in Perth.

While speaking to India TV, Ganguly said, “I had thought of sending a text to Kohli but I haven’t done it yet. I wanted to tell him that you shouldn’t give so many wickets to spinners outside the subcontinent. There is no doubt that Nathan Lyon is a great spinner but so were Shane Warne, Muttiah Muralitharan and Graeme Swann.” The former Indian captain also said that the players had shown him too much of respect by defending the outside off deliveries. According to Ganguly, the Indians should get on to an attacking mode.
