DTVHINDIBGT 2024-25: Before BGT, photo of Mitchell Starc practicing with a special ball went viral.
Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from 22nd November Mitchell Starc (Image Credit- Twitter X) Before the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between Australia and India (AUS vs IND), Australian team fast bowler Mitchell Starc has made headlines. It is noteworthy that the first match of this series will be played at Perth Stadium from 22nd November. So, before this match, in a practice session of the Australian team, Starc was seen practicing with a special kind of ball. The ball with which Starc is practicing is red on one side and white on the other. According to cricket experts, this type of ball helps the bowler a lot in maintaining hand-eye balance. By practicing with this type of ball, Starc can gain control over the late movement swing in the match. The pitch curator of Perth Stadium recently said that some grass is expected to be left on the pitch, due to which the fast bowlers can prove to be effective in the match. See this photo of Mitchell Starc viral on the internet Mitchell Starc was seen using a ball that was half red and half white to assist batters in practicing for lateral movement. 📷: Rev Sportz pic.twitter.com/JaKOsHrSMq — SportsTiger (@The_SportsTiger) November 18, 2024 On the other hand, if the latest media reports are to be believed, then Indian batsmen may face a lot of trouble due to late movement bowling at the end of the first Test match to be held in Perth. Perhaps this is the reason why Starc is practicing with a special type of ball before this match to take advantage of this weakness of India. However, this move by Australia could serve as a double-edged sword, as the current Indian team has a lot of bowlers who can work their magic in swing conditions. So if we tell you about Starc’s performance in Test cricket in the year 2024, he has bowled in 10 innings, in which he has taken a total of 27 wickets at an average of 32.25 and strike rate of 49.60. Apart from this, his average in Test cricket against the Indian team is 35.84. However, now it will be worth watching whether Starc is able to reduce his average against Team India in the upcoming series or not?

‘Let him fail first’ Sourav Ganguly on inclusion of young Sarfaraz in the Indian team during BGT
BGT series starting from 22nd November Sourav Ganguly and Sarfaraz Khan (Image Credit- Twitter Former Indian cricket team captain Sourav Ganguly has recently said that passing judgment on the batting ability of young Sarfaraz Khan without giving him a chance abroad is no less than an injustice against the young player. Ganguly also said that critics should make some assumptions after his performance in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series. It is noteworthy that the 27-year-old player, after a record breaking performance in domestic cricket, made a brilliant debut against England at the beginning of the year. Recently, in the Bengaluru Test match against New Zealand, Sarfaraz scored a debut century, but in the two matches that followed, he could not show anything special. Sourav Ganguly gave a big statement On the other hand, now before the start of BGT, the former captain while talking to RevSportz about Sarfaraz Khan said – You have to give a chance to know him, how can you say anything without giving him a chance? First let him fail, he has scored a lot of runs in domestic cricket and has made his place in the team, no one has given him a chance. Ganguly further said- So, do not dismiss him without giving him a chance, once you do, you will be in a position to assess him. I am very clear, you should give him a chance to know how good or bad he is, without doing so, do not make any judgment about him. On the other hand, if we tell you about the BGT series, Team India is the defending champion of the trophy. The series will start with the first Test match to be held in Perth on 22 November. However, due to personal reasons, Rohit will not be able to play in the first Test match. It will be worth seeing that in the middle order, whom among Sarfaraz Khan and Dhruv Jurel does the management give a chance in the playing eleven?
