The Indian team has to embark on a five-match Border-Gavaskar Test series on the tour of Australia starting from November 22, with the first match being played at the Perth Stadium. The Indian team players have arrived in Australia and started training in Perth. This Test series is very important for the Indian team as before this they had to face a one-sided loss against New Zealand at home and hence their path to the finals of the 2023-25 ​​World Test Championship is now tricky. If the Indian team wants to directly enter the WTC title race, then they must win 4 games in this series. Although the task is quite daunting, the Indian team has performed brilliantly in the last two tours of Australia. Now BCCI has released a video of the Indian team training on the social media platform, in which many players can be seen training hard in the nets.
These players including Virat Kohli and Bumrah are practicing
The Indian team is currently training in Perth, Australia’s Western Cricket Association, where fan admissions have been completely closed, and the Indian team is undergoing extensive secret training ahead of the Test series. In a video posted by BCCI on social media platform Instagram, Virat Kohli is seen facing spinners and fast bowlers in the nets. Apart from this, Rishabh Pant also bowed and left Jasprit Bumrah with a bouncing ball. Fast bowler Prasidh Krishna made his return to the Indian team after a long time during the nets training session. However, India captain Rohit Sharma was not seen during this period.
The Indian team suffered a defeat last time at the Perth Stadium.
In 2018, India played a Test match at the new stadium in Perth and lost by 146 runs. In that match, India scored a brilliant 123 runs with the bat of Virat Kohli in the first innings. Kohli is in very bad form at the moment, so this Test series is also very important for him. If we look at Kohli’s Test record in Australia, his performance so far is quite impressive as he has scored 1352 runs in 13 games at an average of 54.08 which includes six centuries and four half-centuries .
