Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024 – Biggest Cricket Rivalry resumes
The IND vs AUS Test series 2024 is not just about cricket—it’s about legacy. India is eyeing a historic three-peat Down Under, while Australia aims to break India’s streak. The intense rivalry between the two sides has always produced unforgettable moments, and this edition promises nothing less.
India must win at least four out of the five Tests to secure a spot in the WTC final. The challenge is monumental, with key players like Rohit Sharma unavailable and doubts over Shubman Gill due to injury. Yet, history is on India’s side:
- India’s BGT dominance: Four consecutive series wins since 2017.
- Historic wins Down Under: Victories in 2018-19 and 2020-21.
Australia, however, is no pushover. With home advantage and players like Steve Smith and Pat Cummins in top form, the hosts will look to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
