It is noteworthy that the first test match between the two teams will be played on November 22 at Optus Stadium in Perth. However, this series is not going to be easy for India, because recently India had to face 3-0 defeat in the Test series against New Zealand in India. So, if Team India has to perform well against Australia, then the team’s star players Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant will have to perform at any cost. On the other hand, before the start of this much-awaited series, Team India’s former all-rounder and T20 World Cup champion player Irfan Pathan has given a big reaction. Irfan has said that Virat Kohli is going to perform well in this series, and he has given two reasons for this. Let us tell you that before the start of BGT, Irrfan has shared a post on his official X account. In this post Irfan said- I believe that Virat Kohli will perform excellently in Australia. First- He plays well against pace. Despite his recent decline in Test form, his numbers against pace remain exceptional. Australia’s fast and bouncy pitches will prove to be its strength. Second- Kohli avoids energy and big challenges. The Australian team will attack it hard and there is no bigger challenge for Australia than playing a Test on its soil. This is the time when Kohli’s competitive spirit really shines. See this post of Irfan Pathan Why I believe Virat Kohli will excel in Australia: 1️⃣ He thrives against pace.

Recently, former Indian team batsman Suresh Raina has given a big statement regarding Rishabh Pant. According to him, there may be a big bid for Rishabh Pant in the upcoming auction. According to The Times of India, Suresh Raina said, ‘We should see this as an opportunity. If we look at Australian players, they are getting a lot of money and this is not seen with Indian players. He is an excellent captain of Delhi Capitals, a brilliant batsman and a strong wicketkeeper. I feel that there will definitely be a bid of Rs 25 to 30 crores for him. Rishabh Pant is a brand. All franchises will definitely have their eyes on Rishabh Pant: Suresh Raina The former player further said, ‘Rishabh has the ability to win the cup anywhere. He tried in Delhi but nothing happened. Same thing was seen with KL Rahul whereas Shreyas Iyer won the cup for Kolkata but he was not retained by the franchise. Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings, Delhi and Lucknow are the four teams who want to include such an Indian captain in their team. Chennai also has to form a team but they have Rs 55 crore left in their purse. If they spend Rs 25 to 30 crore on one player, they will have to complete the team with at least 18 players.

Ajit Agarkar will stay in Australia during BGT, BCCI is making strong future plans

The first match of the Test series will be played in Perth from 22 November. Ajit Agarkar & Gautam Gambhir (Photo Source: A big update related to Border-Gavaskar Trophy is coming out. Indian cricket team’s chief selector Ajit Agarkar is in Australia and has been asked to stay there for the entire tour. Recently, after the crushing defeat in the home Test series against New Zealand, Team India is being made fun of in the entire cricket world. It has only been a few days since Gautam Gambhir became the head coach and ever since he took charge of the team, the performance of the team has not been that good. In such a situation, in the coming time, India may get to see some new players in every format. The team management has also started preparations for this. Ajit Agarkar will be in Australia during BGT According to the report of Times of India, the selectors and coaches want to know from the senior players about their future plans regarding their career. Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin are all aged 35 or older. Of these, Ashwin has been playing Test cricket continuously for many years. Now these players will have to tell how they are seeing their career going forward. The BCCI source said, “Both Agarkar and Gambhir know that such a poor performance in India will lead to widespread criticism, which is justified. Since it is a long tour, both can sit together and discuss how things can be taken forward after the tour. It will take at least one and a half years for both of them to build a strong backup team. This is where both have to be on the same page about the process.” India has to play some matches of the World Test Championship and big tournaments like Champions Trophy in the coming days. India will not have much time for this and in this they will try their best to retain their core team. However, after this they are planning to make big changes in the team which especially includes the T20 format.
