“Don’t make Travis Head open in BGT…”- Ian Chappell warns Australia team
Travis Head (Image Credit- Twitter X) Former Australian cricketer Ian Chappell has warned the Australian team against using Travis Head as an opening batsman in the upcoming five-match Test series against India. The Kangaroos are set to face India in a five-match Test series later this year. The 2024-25 edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is scheduled to begin on November 22 in Perth. The Australian team is looking for an opening partner for Usman Khawaja after David Warner announced his retirement from Test cricket earlier this year. In the last two Test series against West Indies and New Zealand, Steve Smith opened for the Pat Cummins-led side but did not perform as expected. There is a high possibility that he will be seen batting at number four in this series against India. Now in such a situation, it will be interesting to see who will open for the Australian team in the Test series against India in his absence. Ian Chappell has given his opinion on this issue. Ian Chappell expressed his opinion regarding Travis Head In his column for ESPN Cricinfo by ian chappell That said, “Travis Head’s opening in Test cricket is based on his unmatched success facing the new ball in both 50-over and T20 cricket. There is no doubt that Head, with his highly attacking style, is the ideal player to open in the two shorter formats of the game. However, Test cricket will be a completely different thing.” Ian Chappell further said, “To trouble Jasprit Bumrah, everyone is demanding that Head should open. However, Bumrah and to some extent Mohammed Siraj are unlikely to change their aggressive mindset.” Chappell wants some runs on the board before Travis Head comes to the crease. He said, “Clever R Ashwin will not be fazed by the ultra-aggressive attitude of the opponent. It could be argued that opening with Head means he is more stable facing Ashwin when there are some runs on the board. On the other hand, an astute opposition captain can use off-spinners with the new ball. There is also a compelling argument for using Head as an opening batsman in a Test match.”
We have defeated Australia twice in the Test series in a row and….: Virat Kohli presented his side regarding the upcoming BGT.

Steve Smith got nervous before the start of BGT, said- I get irritated with Jadeja
Let us know what else Smith said about Jadeja (Image Credit- Twitter X) Indian cricket team’s all-rounder player Ravindra Jadeja is one of the best all-rounder players not only in India but also in world cricket. After winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Jadeja said goodbye to the T20 International format. However, at present Jadeja is an important part of the ODI and Test team of the Indian cricket team. Jadeja proved his usefulness in the recently concluded Test series against Bangladesh. Apart from this, the way Jadeja remains active on the field, there is always a fear among the players of the opposing team. On the other hand, now Steve Smith, who is very active on the field, has recently given a big statement regarding Ravindra Jadeja. Smith has admitted that Jadeja can intimidate anyone because of his excellence on the field. Smith also says that he is very fast in fielding and bowling. Steve Smith gave a big statement Let us tell you that before the start of the Border-Gavaskar Test series between India and Australia, Steve Smith said in a discussion with Star Sports – I get angry with Jadeja on the field only because he is a very good player. He always finds a way to get into the fight, whether it’s scoring runs, taking wickets or taking spectacular catches. I get a little irritated with Jadeja sometimes, but he is a very good player. Also, let us tell you that this is not the first time when someone has been impressed by the all-round game of Ravindra Jadeja. Before Smith, Australian bowler Josh Hazlewood has also accepted Jadeja’s game. Well, it will be worth watching that when India goes on Australia tour for five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) later this year, how is Jadeja going to perform?
BGT 2024-25: “If we play well against them then…”, Glenn Maxwell said about Ashwin-Jadeja.
These two (Ashwin and Jadeja) are the only players we have faced consistently – Glenn Maxwell R Ashwin, Glenn Maxwell & Ravindra Jadeja (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The Indian cricket team is going to tour Australia for a five-match Test series under the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in November this year. Team India had won 2-1 in both the previous Test series in Australia. Rohit Sharma and Co. now aim to win their third consecutive Test series on Australian soil. Meanwhile, Glenn Maxwell has described India’s spin pair Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja as game changers. The all-rounder believes that if Australia faces these two players well then the team will be in a better position. Glenn Maxwell said this about Ashwin and Jadeja Glenn Maxwell while speaking on Star Sports said, I think after playing against players like Ashwin and Jadeja for a long time, it feels like both of them are players we have faced consistently and our battles with them often determine the outcome of the game. If we play well against those two (Ashwin, Jadeja), we will generally find ourselves in a better position. Both of them have been with me for most of my career because they are almost the same age. Ashwin and Jadeja have played a huge role in the previous India-Australia matches. Together they have taken 821 wickets in 330 innings, including 50 five-wicket hauls. Maxwell gave this statement regarding Jasprit Bumrah Speaking further, Glenn Maxwell praised Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah. At present, Bumrah is performing brilliantly in all three formats. He won the Player of the Tournament in the T20 World Cup 2024 by taking 15 wickets in 8 matches. I was there in his (Jasprit Bumrah) first season of IPL in Mumbai in 2013 and faced him almost every day in the nets. It is an amazing story to see him go from being a young, untapped talent to possibly the best bowler across all three formats to what he is today.

(Photo by Cameron Spencer/Getty Images) Team India has to play a five-match Test series against Australia which is starting from November 22. Team India will definitely want to win this Test series. Let us tell you, Team India is in very good form at this time and it is at the top of the points table in this cycle of the World Test Championship. Before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024, India’s best batsman Hanuma Vihari has made a big statement about veteran player Cheteshwar Pujara. According to Hanuma Vihari, Team India will miss Cheteshwar Pujara a lot in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy. According to him, Cheteshwar Pujara has been the backbone of the Indian team’s batting lineup in the last two series. According to Times of India, the brilliant player Hanuma Vihari said, ‘Pujara will be missed a lot. He has been the backbone of Team India’s batting lineup in the last two series. He batted brilliantly and also suffered a lot of injuries. He also batted for a long time and when he saw the new ball, the experienced player scored runs. Pujara made the job of the other batsmen easy. Now the question arises that who will play his role? This is also because at present the batting lineup of Team India is very aggressive in the top 6. All the players like to play their shots. I feel that Virat Kohli will be the only player who will handle one end and the rest of the batsmen will be seen playing important roles. They need experience at No. 6: Hanuma Vihari Hanuma Vihari further said, ‘KL Rahul’s role will be very important here because he has a lot of experience of playing in SENA countries and he can bat for a long time. He has performed brilliantly in SENA countries. I feel that KL Rahul should bat at number 6. Sarfaraz Khan is in good form at the moment but Rahul has a lot of experience. Now it is up to the team management to decide whom to give a chance to?

This player can open with Usman Khawaja in BGT, the cricketer himself suggested the name
Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will start in November Usman Khawaja. (Image Source: Getty Images) Cricket fans are eagerly waiting for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test series between India and Australia (IND vs AUS). It is worth noting that in November this year, India will tour Australia for a five-match Test series. While the batting order of the Indian team seems to be very clear during this series, the same is not the case in the Australian camp. Let us tell you that the Australian management is still thinking about which player should open the innings. Because Steve Smith’s statistics while opening have not been very good. After David Warner retired in January this year, Smith has played four Test matches at this position, in which he has been able to score a total of 171 runs at a meagre average of 28.50. On the other hand, Smith’s average while batting at number 4 in Tests is 61. So now during BGT, Australia’s opening batsman Usman Khawaja has named the player who can open with him. Khawaja has suggested the name of Travis Head. Usman Khawaja gave a big statement In a recent interview with Fox Sports, Khawaja said, “He (Smith) will probably never say this. So I will say this for him. Opening is a very important position, but I still think we have the best Test player of my era, Steve Smith, in the team, and his best position has been number four.” Khawaja further said- I think that is the best batting position for him. He brings balance to our team. Marnus Labuschagne at number three and Smudge (Steve Smith) at number four. It is best for the team that whoever scores more runs at which position, he should be played at that position.
