BGT: “I want to see him aggressively…”, Ravi Shastri’s statement regarding Virat Kohli
I think you can see Kohli becoming aggressive again in the beginning of the Test series – Ravi Shastri Virat Kohli & Ravi Shastri (Photo Source: Getty Images/X) Team India is preparing vigorously for the first test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Virat Kohli has not seen a century in both the last Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. In 6 innings against New Zealand, he scored 93 runs at an average of 15.50, his highest score was 70. Meanwhile, former Indian coach Ravi Shastri says that people become calmer as they age. However, he feels that it would be better for Virat if he adopts an aggressive attitude again. Virat Kohli will return to his rhythm after coming to Australia- Ravi Shastri Cricket fans and experts are raising questions on Virat Kohli’s current form. Let us tell you, Kohli has played some of the best innings of his Test career on Australian soil. Ravi Shastri is confident that Kohli will return to his form in the series against Australia. Ravi Shastri said during a conversation with the press, You mellow out as you age, right? But I think at the beginning of the Test series you can see Kohli becoming aggressive again. He needs to do this. I want to see them like that again. He will return to his rhythm after coming to Australia. It depends on how he starts and for Australia it is the same as Steve Smith. Don’t underestimate these players – if they perform well in the first two or three innings, they can dominate the series. Virat Kohli has scored at an average of only 32 since the beginning of 2020 and has scored only two centuries in the last 60 Test innings. His form declined further in 2024, averaging 22.72 in 6 matches and scoring only one half-century in the last 10 innings.

Take a look at all the venues of BGT 2024-25, see records and stats of each stadium
Optus Cricket Ground (Photo Source: The upcoming edition of the Border-Gavaskar series is scheduled to start from November 22. The rivalry between these two countries is currently at its highest level and is becoming more intense as Australia has not won a single Test series against India for almost the last 10 years. In contrast, India has recently lost to Australia in the World Test Championship final, ODI World Cup final in 2023. Ahead of the marquee series, many Australian players have expressed their desire to perform well in the series against India. For the visitors, it will be difficult, especially after losing the home Test series to New Zealand at the beginning of the month. Additionally, captain Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill are expected to miss the first Test in Perth. Team India is not the favorite in this series. Here’s a look at all the venues of BGT 2024-25 1. Optus Stadium, Perth – November 22-26 India has played one Test in the new stadium in Perth. In that match, star batsman Virat Kohli scored a century but the visiting team lost the match by 146 runs. This time, they are preparing a pitch suited for fast bowlers and a better bowling order will get the advantage here. Meanwhile, the stadium can host around 60,000 spectators and according to reports, the stadium will be full to capacity during the first Test. Top run-scorer from 2018-19: Marnus Labuschagne (519) Top wicket taker bowler from 2018-19: Nathan Lyon (27) First innings average of the match since 2018-19: 456 Australia since 2018: Matches – 4, Won – 4, Lost – 0 2. Adelaide Oval – December 6-10 (Adelaide Oval) When India last played a Test match in Adelaide, India was out for 36 runs. India’s record on this ground is scary. He will definitely be in the minds of the players playing that match. That too because the Adelaide match will be a day-night test. The Rohit Sharma-led side has played very few pink-ball Tests recently and that is a worrying sign. Meanwhile, India have played 13 Test matches at the Adelaide Oval, winning two and losing eight. Top run-scorer from 2018-19: Marnus Labuschagne (574) Top wicket taker bowler from 2018-19: Mitchell Starc (30) First innings average of the match since 2018-19: 375 Australia since 2018: Matches – 6, Won – 5, Lost – 1 3. The Gabba, Brisbane – December 14-18 (The Gabba Brisbane) India broke Australia’s 32-year winning streak at the Gabba in January 2021. Later, West Indies won there too due to the brilliant bowling of Shamar Joseph. Meanwhile, the Gabba is no longer the ‘fortress’ that Australia claimed for years. However, India has played seven matches in this stadium, winning one and losing five. However, the previous win will boost the confidence of the players and they would like to repeat that performance this time too. Top run-scorer from 2018-19: Marnus Labuschagne (497) Top wicket taker bowler since 2018-19: Pat Cummins (36) First innings average of the match since 2018-19: 227 Australia since 2018: Matches –…
BGT: “He is a great player, and is learning…”, former coach Rahul Dravid praised Shubman Gill.
He (Shubman Gill) bats a little differently from me and Pujara – Rahul Dravid Rahul Dravid & Shubman Gill (Photo Source: The first match of the five-match Test series between Australia and India under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is going to be played in Perth from November 22. Jasprit Bumrah is going to captain India in the absence of Rohit Sharma. What will be the playing 11 of Team India in Perth Test? Fans are very excited to know this. There is pressure among the fans as well as the players regarding this series, because the team had to face 0-3 defeat at home against New Zealand in the last Test series. Meanwhile, former Indian coach Rahul Dravid says that if two of India’s top-4 batsmen score runs then the team will have a big chance of victory. He also emphasized that Shubman Gill is an excellent player and he will be seen performing brilliantly at number 3. Shubman Gill is a great player- Rahul Dravid Shubman Gill made his Test debut for India as an opener in BGT 2020-21 against Australia. Gill played two half-century innings in three matches in the debut series. He played a brilliant inning of 91 runs in the Gabba Test, which played a big role in India’s historic run chase (328). India won that series 2-1 Shubman Gill has been seen batting at number 3 in Tests for India since last year. He was seen struggling in the beginning, but his average in 25 innings is 42. Rahul Dravid while speaking on ESPNCricinfo said, They have Shubman Gill, who is a fantastic player. Last time he had some great successes in Australia. Everyone talks about Rishabh’s 80 (89) and rightly so, but I think Shubman scored 91 to set up the game on that fifth morning. He’s a great player, he’s a great kid, and he’s learning. He bats a little differently from me and Pujara, but still he is a very, very good player. Gill suffered a thumb injury during practice at the WACA Ground before the Perth Test against Australia. According to reports, he has a fracture in his thumb and he may be out of the first test. Devdutt Padikkal can replace Gill in the playing 11.

The much awaited BGT series is starting from 22nd November Michael Vaughan (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former England cricket team captain Michael Vaughan has recently given a big statement before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series. Vaughan says that only if Team India adopts an aggressive approach from the beginning and is successful in pushing Australia on the backfoot, then only it can save this series. Vaughan also said that when India won the Test series in Australia for the first time in the year 2018-19, there was the mentor of ‘charismatic coach’ Ravi Shastri and an excellent leader in the form of Virat Kohli. But this time who is going to be Shastri and Kohli of Team India on the tour? This has to be seen. Michael Vaughn gave a big statement Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Fox Cricket before the start of BGT, Vaughan said – In the last four or five years, without any doubt, these two teams have been the best two teams with their skill set and mentality. Are. The last two times they have been here, they have won. They had a charismatic coach in Ravi Shastri and a captain in Virat Kohli. Vaughan further said- I am a big believer that when you play against Australia, there is only one way to play against them and that is to be on the front foot, be aggressive and score some tries. Ravi could do this, Virat could do this. I want to know who is Ravi Shastri and Virat Kohli in the Indian team this time? I don’t think there can be another one like it. Can Rohit come back and do this kind of captaincy? I think this is going to be a big challenge for India in the coming few weeks?
