The Boxing Day Test between India and Australia will be played at the Melbourne Cricket Stadium from 26 December. This will be the fourth match of Border-Gavaskar Trophy. This match is going to be very important for both the teams, because the series is currently tied at 1-1. In such a situation, both the teams will be eyeing the lead in the series. Team India has practiced extensively in Melbourne for this match. Indian batsmen have not been able to do much special on this tour so far. In such a situation, a big decision was taken before the Melbourne Test, which can play an important role in defeating Australia.

Team India took help of Pakistani bowler

On December 24, Indian players sweated profusely in the nets for practice. This was also the last practice session of Team India before the Boxing Day Test. In such a situation, the batsmen faced different bowlers. Meanwhile, a video of Team India's practice is going viral on social media. In this video, a Pakistani bowler is seen giving practice to the Indian batsmen. That means Indian batsmen have taken the help of Pakistani bowlers to strengthen their preparations.

Let us tell you, Devdutt Padikkal and Dhruv Jurel have played 1-1 matches so far in this series. At the same time, Sarfaraz Khan has been made to sit out of the first three matches of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

India will have to win the match at any cost

The remaining 2 matches of Border-Gavaskar Trophy are very important for Team India. The decision whether India will play the final of the World Test Championship or not will be taken from here. Team India has to win both the matches to reach the final directly. At the same time, after winning the Boxing Day Test, the danger of Team India losing the series will also be averted. That means Team India can do two big things with one win. In such a situation, Rohit Sharma and company would like to win this match at any cost.
