India will be on their most challenging tour in recent times when they travel to Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, starting November 22. 

Australian tours have always remained tough for any team in the world. Interestingly, India last lost a series against Australia back in 2014-15 and won the two subsequent series played down under since then. While India also defeated Australia in two series played in India.  

The stats and the results of last nine to ten years are completely in favour of India, but bespite being the favourites to win the upcoming BGT, team India is set to place their full-strength test team with WTC finals berth in mind.  

Rohit & Co. Are hopeful for a favourable results during the tour down under and are aiming to reach the WTC finals 2025 as the first-ranked team.  

Among all the news related to BGT, the biggest one making noise is the unavailability of India’s regular skipper Rohit Sharma in the first two tests.
