The Border-Gavaskar Trophy is starting from 22nd November in Perth. In this 5-match Test series, both Team India and Australia would definitely like to win it by performing well against each other. Let us tell you that Team India has won the last two editions of Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

However, before the start of this Test series, Australia team captain Pat Cummins has given a big statement about Team India. Pat Cummins was a part of the Australia team in which Team India won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2017. Since then, Team India has performed brilliantly in the Test series against Australia. Talking about the Australian team, they won the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 under the captaincy of Pat Cummins while the team has also won the World Test Championship.

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Pat Cummins said during an event, ‘I was thinking about this thing recently. This is the closest thing I haven’t been able to achieve yet. I have never defeated Team India in a Test series. There are some people like that but I am not among them.

Whoever decided to make me captain knew about my abilities: Pat Cummins

Pat Cummins further said, ‘Whenever you see the captain of Australia, it comes to your mind that he has achieved a lot. And when you are appointed captain, you also think that now I have also become one like them. Many people supported me in the initial days and whoever decided to make me captain knew about my abilities. I myself did not know about this thing.

Pat Cummins’s record against India in Tests has been excellent. The Australian captain has taken 50 wickets at an average of above 26 in 13 test matches against Team India. Pat Cummins would definitely like to leave his mark in the upcoming 5-match Test series. Currently, both the teams are practicing vigorously for the upcoming test series.
