The Border-Gavaskar Trophy is to be played between India and Australia at the end of this year. Five test matches will be played in this series. Former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has predicted which team will win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and by what margin will it win the series.
Ricky Ponting said that the Australian team will win the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy by a margin of 3-1. The Indian team defeated the Kangaroo team in the last two consecutive Test series in Australia and its aim will be to achieve a hat-trick of series wins.
Australia may have lost three consecutive series against India, but it managed to beat India in the final of the World Test Championship. By the way, India and Australia are in the top 2 positions in the points table of the current World Test Championship.
Ricky Ponting said in a conversation with ICC Review, I definitely want the Australian team to win. I will never go against Australia. In the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, some matches may be drawn and some matches may be affected by bad weather. So I think Australia will win the series 3-1.
Let us tell you that the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from November 22. The first Test will be played in Perth. The second Test to be played in Adelaide will be a pink ball match. The series will end with the New Year Test in Sydney.
Ricky Ponting said that I think the Indian team learned to fight and said that you are playing against India. This is a different Indian team. They have different leaders and players and they do whatever they have to do to defeat you. Whether the match is in India or in Australia.
