This series will start in November
Later this year, India will tour Australia for the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series. Along with Indian cricket fans, Australian fans are also eagerly waiting for this series.
This series is considered very important in Test cricket between India and Australia, which is played in honor of former Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar and former Australian player Allan Border.
On the other hand, now the news is coming that during this series, former Indian player and well-known cricket commentator Sunil Gavaskar will be seen commentating for 7Cricket.
It is worth noting that 7 Cricket is Australia’s domestic cricket broadcaster, which covers most of the cricket happening in the country. So now Gavaskar will be seen doing commentary for this broadcaster during the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

India had named this series last time
It is worth noting that the last Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia was played on Indian soil. At that time, India had won the four-match Test series 2-1. India had won the first match of the series in Nagpur by a huge margin of an innings and 132 runs.
Whereas in the second match held in Delhi, India won by 6 wickets. However, after this Australia won the third test match held in Indore by 9 wickets. But after this the fourth test match held in Ahmedabad ended in a draw.
Well, it will be interesting to see whether India is able to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy this time or not?
