Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 is the biggest test of Indian Test. India has defeated Australia in its own home both the last times. But this time the circumstances are different. This time, along with the Border Gavaskar Trophy, the final of the World Test Championship is also at stake. But even before the series, the tension of Team India is increasing. It is believed that Team India may have to take a big decision at the beginning of the series and make changes in the squad.

Team India is in big trouble

Team India's star batsman Shubman Gill has got injured even before the start of the series. Gill has suffered a fracture in his left thumb, due to which he is likely to be out of the opening Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Optus Stadium in Perth from November 22. He suffered this injury in a practice match against India A. At the same time, KL Rahul also got injured during practice. Rahul suffered an injury to his right elbow during the center wicket match simulation on November 15. And now the news is coming out that Rohit Sharma has been ruled out of the first match, who is still in India.

The luck of these two players may change

Actually, Rohit Sharma has recently become a father for the second time. In such a situation, Rohit currently wants to spend time with his family. That means at least two of these players are going to miss playing the Perth Test. This means that Team India may have to change its strategy. According to a report in Times of India, the Indian team management may ask Sai Sudarshan or Devdutt Padikkal to stay with the Indian team for the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Both these players are currently in Australia, who were part of the India Ek team.

Let us tell you, Devdutt Padikkal made his Test debut for Team India during the England series this year. Padikkal has enough experience of playing in the top order. He also had a good start in the series against Australia A and scored 88 runs in the first match in Mackay. At the same time, Sai Sudarshan has been continuously impressing the selectors. Sai Sudarshan recently scored a century in the second match while playing at number 3 for India A.
