Australia and India will face off once more. On November 22, the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy will begin in Perth's Optus Stadium. In the first Test match of the series, Pat Cummins' Australia will play the Indian cricket side, which will be captained by Jasprit Bumrah. The first Test will be held at the Optus Stadium, where Virat Kohli has an outstanding record. According to Perth curator Isaac McDonald, they were attempting to replicate the old-fashioned WACA surface at the Optus, which would have offered bounce and speed. However, that planning suffered a significant hit because of the city's unexpected rainfall.

Rain is predicted to have an impact on the opening day and the toss on Friday, November 22. It has rained in Perth in the lead-up to the first Test match. According to forecasts, there is a 25% probability of rain on the first day of the Perth Test match.
