Ricky Ponting Points Out One Star Player That "India Will Definitely Miss" In Border-Gavaskar Trophy

Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has been bold with his opinions ahead of the highly-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series between India and Australia, and has now criticised India's decision to not include Cheteshwar Pujara in the Test squad. Pujara - a man who has nearly 2,000 runs against Australia at an average of nearly 50 - was not included for the series, having been dropped from the Indian Test squad ever since the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023 Final. Ponting stated that this could be a mistake made by the selectors.

Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believes India head coach Gautam Gambhir's recent crack at him about stalwart Virat Kohli's form comes down to deflecting pressure following their home series whitewash against New Zealand. The element of spice has added another layer of intensity to the rivalry between two Test heavyweights of modern-day cricket. Things started to flare up after Gambhir took a jibe at Ponting for criticizing Kohli for his recent form. The former Australian skipper's comments didn't sit well with the Indian head coach.

Rohit Sharma's Return "Potential Disruption": Ricky Ponting Plays Another Mind-Game With Indian Team

Captain Rohit Sharma linking up with the Indian team in the second Test at Adelaide could be a "potential disruption" for the visitors, reckoned the legendary Ricky Ponting, who Thursday stood by his prediction of a 3-1 series victory for Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The marquee five-match Test series starts here on Friday. Rohit is on a paternity break and will miss the series-opener. Pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah is captaining the Indian team in his absence.

"He Doesn't Need To...": Pat Cummins' Advice To Australia Rookie Nathan McSweeney

Rookie opener Nathan McSweeney will be entering his maiden Test series with a lot riding on him, but Australia captain Pat Cummins on Thursday offered him some comforting advice, saying he should focus on playing his natural game and not "imitate" his predecessor -- the great David Warner. McSweeney, 25, will be filling the spot left vacant by the retirement of Warner earlier this year and partner Usman Khawaja at the top of the order in the marquee Border-Gavaskar Test series against India starting here on Friday.

"When BCCI Wants...": Sly Dig By T20 World Cup Champion Over IPL Auction Clashing With Perth Test

With day three and four of first Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test in Perth clashing with the IPL 2025 mega auction, former Australia captain Aaron Finch said the BCCI holds significant power, as they tend to achieve their desired outcomes. Shortly after day three and four ends on November 24 and 25 respectively, the action will shift to the two-day IPL 2025 mega auction happening in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. "I just think it's a bit unusual that they've gone up against a Test match at the same time. Understanding the time zones are different, so it'll most likely happen after a day's play of Test cricket.

Gautam Gambhir's Tenure 'Could Be Shorter' Than Greg Chappell's: India Coach Sent Blunt Message Ahead Of BGT

The pre-departure press conference of Indian cricket team coach Gautam Gambhir, ahead of the Border Gavaskar Trophy, was an aggressive one. Gambhir was not happy with former Australia captain Ricky Ponting's comments on Virat Kohli's form. Then, Ponting called Gambhir a 'prickly character'. It was the perfect spicy build-up that the India vs Australia series needed. On Sky Sports, former England captain Mike Atherton asked Simon Doull about Gautam Gambhir's recent remark about Ricky Ponting. The former New Zealand pacer commented that Gambhir's tenure as India coach could be shorter that Greg Chappell. The former Australia player had a tumultuous time at the helm of the Indian cricket team from mid-2005 till early 2007.

"Have Serious Reservations": Ex Australia Captain Attacks Gautam Gambhir, Questions His Attitude

While Virat Kohli led the Indian troops, head coach Ravi Shastri was the protective shield that enabled the Indian team to pull off a historic Border-Gavaskar Trophy win Down Under in 2020. However, questions are being raised over the Indian team's ability to pull off a similar result this time, under the guidance of head coach Gautam Gambhir. Former Australia captain Tim Paine, who was leading the side in when India won the series in 2020, has cast serious doubts over Gambhir's ability to coach the Indian team, saying the former opening batter's temperament and approach doesn't suit the Indian players.
