Border-Gavaskar Trophy is just 100 days away and the hype for the series is real. The experts and fans are desperately waiting for the series to kickstart as it will re-ignite one of the fiercest cricket rivals.
The Indian side has clinched the last four BGTs and has been the dominant side. The biggest setback for the Aussies came in 2021 when the Indian team defeated them in their backyard with their B-side.
Former Australian skipper Ricky Ponting stated that the Aussie side is looking for vengeance. He also predicted that now the series is back to a 5-match series, Australia will dominate it.
Ravi Shastri Hits Back
Former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri has produced a counterpunch to Ricky Ponting’s one-sided prediction. He predicts that the Indian side under Rohit Sharma will do a hat-trick of wins in Australia.
Shastri was part of the squad that defeated Australia back in 2019 and 2021 so his words mean a lot. He reminded Ponting of the last two tours of India and stated that the Indian side has a good chance of winning another.
He stated “The Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia over five Test matches is going to be a humdinger. Remember, India have beaten Australia twice on the last two tours and Australia have not had a hand on the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in almost a decade.”
Border-Gavaskar Trophy!
The BGT is just 100 days away and everyone knows that it will be a brilliant series. Two teams at the top of their games are going to collide in the best manner possible.
Ravi Shastri also thinks that as he stated “It is going to be one heck of a series and India have every chance of making it a hat-trick because they’ve got their bowlers fit and if they can bat well, they can tickle (beat) Australia once again.”
