Sunil Gavaskar, a former Indian cricketer, has shared his thoughts on the upcoming Test series in Australia. He believes that India can continue their recent success and win back the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in the upcoming series.
Series Details
India and Australia, two leading teams in Test cricket, will play a five-match series in Australia starting in November. This test series is crucial as it will impact who qualifies for next year’s ICC World Test Championship final at Lord’s.

Other Predictions
Ricky Ponting, former captain of Australia, has predicted a series win for his team. In contrast, Ravi Shastri, former captain of India, has chosen India to win. Gavaskar, now weighing in, predicts India will win the test series 3-1. He thinks Australia’s struggles with their opening and middle-order batsmen make them vulnerable.
Concerns for India
Gavaskar is worried that India won’t have any warm-up matches in Australia before the series starts on November 22 in Perth. India’s only preparation will be an internal practice game at WACA. Gavaskar points out that India often starts slowly in overseas series, so the lack of practice games could be a disadvantage.
