Australia defeated Team India 3-1 in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. This series was very bad for the Indian players. Except Jasprit Bumrah, no Indian player could perform consistently well in the series. Team India now has to play the next test series after 5 months. It is believed that during this period, Team India will go through a period of change. At the same time, by the next Australian tour, Team India will be completely changed. In such a situation, there are 3 such players in this team who will probably be seen playing the Test series in the next Australian tour.

Career of these 3 players is over in Australia!

Actually, India and Australia host the Border-Gavaskar Trophy alternately. That means the next Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be played in India, which will be played during 2026-27. Then in 2028-29, Team India will tour Australia for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Then Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja will hardly be a part of Team India. In fact, looking at the ages of these players, it is clear that they are in the last stages of their international careers and by the next Australian tour, these players will retire somewhere, especially from the Test format.

Now playing test series in Australia is next to nothing

Let us tell you, Rohit Sharma has recently announced that he is not retiring from Test at the moment. That means he will continue to play in Tests. But it is unlikely that Rohit will continue in Tests till 2028-29. He is currently 37 years old and will turn 41 by the next Australian tour. At the same time, Virat Kohli is currently 36 years old and he will turn 40 by the next Australian tour. On the other hand, Ravindra Jadeja has also turned 36 this year and he will also turn 40 by the 2028-29 tour.
