Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 bound Indian Cricket team is currently in Australia practising for the five-Test match series scheduled to start from November 22. The upcoming Test series will be important for India to seal their spot in the World Test Championship (WTC) final which is scheduled to take place next year in England.
