"They'll Go Very Hard At Rohit Sharma": Ex-Australia Star's Blunt Warning For India Skipper
Ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 between India and Australia, former leg-spinner Kerry O'Keeffe believes that the Baggy Greens will go really hard on opposition skipper Rohit Sharma in the upcoming all-important Test series. Over the years, India has regained an upper hand over Australia in the series. India has won its previous four series against Australia in a row, including two wins in Australia in the 2018-19 and 2020-21 seasons. This has made India a much more successful side in the series, with India winning the BGT 10 times and Australia winning it five times, with their last series win coming in during the 2014-15 season. Their last series win in India was in 2004-05.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)'s decision to cancel a warm-up match against India A, ahead of the start of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, met with plenty of criticism.
