I saw no promotion: PAK head coach Jason Gilespie says that Australia is focusing on BGT

I pretty much saw no promotion of our one-day series by Cricket Australia, which was a bit of a surprise," said Gilespie.

Pakistan’s current white-ball head coach Jason Gillespie has said that Australia is focusing on the upcoming Border-Gavaskar (BGT) series against India. Jason Gilespie said that he was surprised with the Australian Cricket Board, which hardly promoted Pakistan’s white-ball tour to Australia.

He admitted that Cricket Australia’s priority was the upcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy. The Pakistan head coach also pointed out that the official broadcasters for Australia’s home summer make great promos, but there was no hype for the Pakistan series. Despite this, Pakistan hammered Australia to win the 3-match ODI series 2-1 vs Australia.

BGT is their priority: Jason Gilespie

To be honest, I pretty much saw no promotion of our one-day series by Cricket Australia, which was a bit of a surprise. It’s pretty obvious that they’re prioritizing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test series against India because I saw no promotion of this series. Fox do a great job promoting, but it was pretty clear to us where CA’s priorities lie. That’s their prerogative and their decision, but I just didn’t see any advertising or promotion of this one-day series at all,” Gillespie told the Sydney Morning Herald. 

Border-Gavaskar Trophy schedule

The first match of the BGT will be played from November 22 onwards in Perth.. The final match of the series is slated to be from January 3, 2025 onwards in Sydney.
