The Indian team is scheduled to tour Australia from November 22 for the 5-match Border-Gavaskar Test series, the first match of which will be played at the Perth Stadium. The players of Team India have reached Australia, where they have also started practice in Perth. This Test series is going to be very important for the Indian team as they had earlier suffered a one-sided loss against New Zealand at home, which paved the way for them to reach the final of the World Test Championship 2023-25. Now it’s very prickly. If Team India wants to directly make their place in the WTC title match, they will have to win 4 matches of this series. Although the task is very difficult, Team India has performed well in the last two tours in Australia. Now the BCCI has posted a video of the Indian team’s practice on the social media platform, in which several players are seen practicing vigorously at the nets.
These players including Virat Kohli and Bumrah practiced
Team India is currently practicing at Western Cricket Australia, Perth, with the entry of any fans completely closed, with Team India practicing several times in secret ahead of the Test series. In a video posted by BCCI on social media platform Instagram, Virat Kohli is facing spinners along with fast bowlers in the nets. Apart from this, Rishabh Pant is seen bending and releasing Jasprit Bumrah’s bouncer ball. The famous fast bowler Krishna returning to Team India after a long time during nets practice. However, the captain of Team India Rohit Sharma was not seen during this time.
Last time, Team India had to face defeat at the stadium in Perth.
In the year 2018, Team India played a Test match at this new stadium in Perth, in which they lost by 146 runs. In that match, Team India’s first innings saw a brilliant 123 runs with the bat of Virat Kohli. Kohli is going through a very bad form right now, so this Test series is going to be very important for him as well. If we look at Kohli’s Test record in Australia, he has been impressive so far, scoring 1352 runs in 13 matches at an average of 54.08, including six centuries and four fifties.
