Australia rightly reclaim Border-Gavaskar Trophy, seal WTC Final spot

0

India lost the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after failing to draw at the SCG, hindered by poor bowling. Australia capitalized on Jasprit Bumrah’s absence and ineffective Indian openers, while Virat Kohli’s off-stump struggles continued. Australia reclaimed the trophy and secured a World Test Championship final spot. India had previously won two consecutive series in Australia under Virat Kohli’s captaincy in 2018 and Ajinkya Rahane’s in 2020.
