I will be surprised if Virat does not score runs in Australia- Sourav Ganguly Sourav Ganguly and Virat Kohli. (Photo Source: Twitter) In the last few years, the performance of Team India’s legendary batsman Virat Kohli in Test cricket has not been that good. His form remains a matter of tension for Team India. India has to play the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar series against Australia from 22nd November and if India has to perform well in this series, it is very important for Virat to be in form. Virat’s performance in Australia so far has been excellent and it is expected that in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Virat will regain his lost form in Test cricket. Earlier in the three-day intra squad match, Virat had come out to bat twice on the first day and now he will be desperate to score runs in this series. Sourav Ganguly Sourav Ganguly gave a big statement on Virat Kohli’s form Former Team India cricketer and BCCI Chief Sourav Ganguly has said that he will be very surprised if Virat is not able to score runs in this Test series. In an interview given to RevSports, when Sourav Ganguly was asked about Virat Kohli’s form, he said, ‘He is a champion player, his ODI figures are better, his 2014 series was dangerous, his record in Australia has been strong. . He has about 6 test centuries in Australia. We have to admit that he is not getting younger with time. The game is different at the age of 28-29, 30 and it is different at the age of 36-37. But he will be ready for this series, he knows he has been successful here, his game is still great and there is no doubt about that and the most important thing is that he will be playing on good pitches. The wicket will be fast, there will be pace on it, there will be bounce, there will be seam movement with the Kookaburra ball. So this will be a good series for him and I will be very surprised if this series is not good for him. Five Test matches is a lot, I think this series will be very good for him.

AUS vs IND (Photo Source: The five-match Test series between India and Australia is going to start from November 22 at the Optus Stadium in Perth. There will be a lot of pressure on the Indian team in this series after recently facing a clean sweep from New Zealand at home. The path to the World Test Championship has become difficult for India after losing 3-0 in the series against New Zealand. If India now wants to reach the WTC final, then they will have to perform well against Australia. To win BGT, Team India will have to perform well in all three departments (batting, bowling and fielding). The pace attack of the Indian team for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 is not as experienced as that of the host team Australia. You will be surprised to know that all the pacers of the Indian team together have not been able to take as many wickets in Test cricket as the Australian team captain Pat Cummins has in his account. AUS vs IND: India’s bowling attack is very weak compared to Australia. Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood are part of the playing XI for the Perth Test match. The number of Test wickets taken by these three is 900, whereas the four pacers of the Indian team together have been able to take only 265 wickets. In this way, in terms of bowling, the strength of the Australian team will be three times that of India. In the Test, Jasprit Bumrah has taken 173 wickets, Mohammad Siraj has taken 80 wickets, Akash Deep has taken 10 wickets and Prasidh Krishna has taken 2 wickets. The number of wickets taken by these four is 265, while Australian team captain Pat Cummins alone has taken 269 wickets in Test cricket. Whereas Harshit Rana and Nitish Reddy have not yet debuted in Test cricket. Although when Team India last toured Australia, India’s pace attack was much weaker than Australia, yet the Indian team was successful in defeating the Kangaroos at their home. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see how Team India performs in this Border Gavaskar series.
