Recently, in the third and final Test match played in Mumbai, Team India had to face defeat against New Zealand by 25 runs. Team India had a disappointing performance in the three-match Test series played between these two teams and that is why New Zealand won it 3-0. The bad thing for Team India was that their batsmen failed to leave their mark in all three Tests.

Now Team India has to play Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 against Australia, which is starting from 22nd November. The first Test between the two teams will be played in Perth. If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of this cycle of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win all the matches of the upcoming Test series against Australia. However, before the upcoming Test series, former player Simon Doull has given a big statement. According to him, the Australian team will not let India forget the clean sweep at all.

Simon Doull told GeoCinema, ‘There is no doubt that India had won the last two series played in Australia and that is also a good thing. But you are going to Australia with a clean sweep. I am sure that the whole of Australia will be waiting for this and every minute they will remind Team India of the clean sweep.

Team India needs four wins and one draw to reach the final of the World Test Championship. A lot of questions are being raised on Rohit Sharma and team. It is not going to be so easy for them to make a comeback either. This is because almost the same players who played the Test series against New Zealand are touring Australia and the challenge coming for them is not going to be so easy.

Team India is now trying to let the spinners of the opposing team dominate them: Simon Doull

Simon Doull further said, ‘Now what is happening is that Team India is trying to let the spinners of the opposing team dominate them. With all due respect, I would like to say that Mitchell Santner and Tom Hartley are bowlers whom you would not call high quality Test bowlers. Team India has two of the best spinners in the world and their responsibility in the upcoming Test series is also going to be very important.

The upcoming test series between Team India and Australia starts from 22nd November. Both the teams would definitely like to win this test series.
