A big update related to Border-Gavaskar Trophy is coming out. Indian cricket team’s chief selector Ajit Agarkar is in Australia and has been asked to stay there for the entire tour. Recently, after the crushing defeat in the home Test series against New Zealand, Team India is being made fun of in the entire cricket world.

It has only been a few days since Gautam Gambhir became the head coach and ever since he took charge of the team, the performance of the team has not been that good. In such a situation, in the coming time, India may get to see some new players in every format. The team management has also started preparations for this.

Ajit Agarkar will be in Australia during BGT

According to the report of Times of India, the selectors and coaches want to know from the senior players about their future plans regarding their career. Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin are all aged 35 or older. Of these, Ashwin has been playing Test cricket continuously for many years. Now these players will have to tell how they are seeing their career going forward.

The BCCI source said, “Both Agarkar and Gambhir know that such a poor performance in India will lead to widespread criticism, which is justified. Since it is a long tour, both can sit together and discuss how things can be taken forward after the tour. It will take at least one and a half years for both of them to build a strong backup team. This is where both have to be on the same page about the process.”

India has to play some matches of the World Test Championship and big tournaments like Champions Trophy in the coming days. India will not have much time for this and in this they will try their best to retain their core team. However, after this they are planning to make big changes in the team which especially includes the T20 format.

First- He plays well against pace. Despite his recent decline in Test form, his numbers against pace remain exceptional. Australia’s fast and bouncy pitches will prove to be its strength. Second- Kohli avoids energy and big challenges. The Australian team will attack it hard and there is no bigger challenge for Australia than playing a Test on its soil. This is the time when Kohli’s competitive spirit really shines. See this post of Irfan Pathan Why I believe Virat Kohli will excel in Australia: 1️⃣ He thrives against pace.

According to The Times of India, Suresh Raina said, ‘We should see this as an opportunity. If we look at Australian players, they are getting a lot of money and this is not seen with Indian players. He is an excellent captain of Delhi Capitals, a brilliant batsman and a strong wicketkeeper. I feel that there will definitely be a bid of Rs 25 to 30 crores for him. Rishabh Pant is a brand. All franchises will definitely have their eyes on Rishabh Pant: Suresh Raina The former player further said, ‘Rishabh has the ability to win the cup anywhere. He tried in Delhi but nothing happened.
