bgt rohit sharma team and ruturaj gaikwad team will not clash in australia bcci

Next month the Indian team will go on Australia tour. Where the three-day practice match with the India A team has been canceled as the team management wants to focus on additional net practice. The first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will start from November 22 in Perth. The Indian team was scheduled to play a practice match against the India A team captained by Ruturaj Gaikwad in Perth between 15 and 17 November.

PTI has learned that head coach Gautam Gambhir and some senior players want to spend more time in the nets. Rohit Sharma’s team will go to Australia after losing the home series to New Zealand. There will be additional pressure on the Indian team aiming to win its third consecutive Test series in Australia as a place in the World Test Championship final is also at stake.

Let us tell you that the pitch of WACA is like the pitch of Perth Stadium, hence the top order batsmen would like to spend more time on the pitch. In such a situation, matches within the team will not help because if a batsman gets out early, he will not get time to come on the pitch again. The Indian team had played practice matches on the last two tours of Australia. At the same time, last year in South Africa, the teams had matches among themselves in Johannesburg before the Boxing Day Test in Centurion.
