IND VS AUS Test: Full Schedule, playing 11, venue, LIVE streaming and all you need to know about Border Gavaskar Trophy

India and Australia are all set to lock horns for the much awaited Border Gavaskar Trophy from November 22. The bilateral Test series has become one of the most exciting clashes in world cricket after India defeated the Kangaroos on their home turf for two straight tours. This time around, though, the stakes are higher than before with the visitors requiring to win 4 out of 5 matches of BGT in order to make a place in the final of World Test Championship final.

Reports suggest that an underwhelming result in Australia could mean the end of Test careers of many of the senior players in the side including Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin. There could be reckoning in the waiting even for India head coach Gautam Gambhir, who could be limited to just the white ball format if the Men in Blue fail to live up to their hype.

Meanwhile, Kangaroos have been waiting for an opportunity to inflict the pain back on the Indians ever since the series defeat of 2022. Aussie skipper Pat Cummins will not make the mistake of unerestimating this slightly ageing Indian side with the Men in Blue showing time and again that they are at their best when their backs are against the walls.
