The 46-year-old Anil Kumble, who is India's highest wicket-taker in Tests (3rd in the world) decided to prepare Virat Kohli and co. to counter the threat of O'Keefe in the upcoming Test match in Ranchi.

Kumble, one of India's finest spinners, started bowling left-handed in the nets to strengthen middle-order batsman Cheteshwar Pujara’s technique against Australia's left-arm bowlers.

"Because they have a left-arm spinner (O'Keefe) he was trying to replicate the ball coming from the corner of the crease and just angling the ball into the right-hander and tried to spin it from there. I was just trying to get used to that angle. And it was really useful for me," said Pujara in an interview with BCCI.TV.
