The day is here, and so are the Indian and Australian teams, as the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is all set to begin at Optus Stadium in Perth. Several big changes have already been confirmed from the Indian side. First and foremost, India’s regular captain Rohit Sharma will not be available for the first Test. Jasprit Bumrah will replace him as captain and will look to secure his first Test win as a leader in world cricket. There is also uncertainty around Shubman Gill’s presence in the playing XI. Many things happening for the visitors, but the positive memories of their last few visits, especially two back-to-back series wins in Australia, will be something they will look to carry forward. Check what time the India vs Australia 1st Test match is starting.
