Former Australia opener Matthew Hayden has advised India’s bowlers to target the “fourth, fifth stump line” and make use of the natural bounce offered by the Gabba surface in the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, starting on Saturday.

The five-match series is locked at 1-1 after Australia’s emphatic win in the pink Test in Adelaide. India won the opener by 295 runs at Perth. Hayden, 53, shared his views on how to dismiss the Australian batters at Gabba. “When they get a chance to bowl, India must rely on hovering around that fourth, fifth stump line a bit more. And most importantly, use the bounce,” Hayden told Star Sports.
