Team India will lock horns with the Australian national cricket team in the Border Gavaskar Trophy series which includes four Tests. The first Test is just a couple of days away from getting underway at VCA Stadium in Nagpur.
It remains to be seen which team uses their resources to better effect to take the first lead in the series. The team that draws the first blood in the series have a psychological edge going forward into the series.
Australian cricket team have often struggled to produce good results when they toured India to play the Test series. The last time the Aussies won the Test series against India in India was back in 2004 as they won the series by 2-1.
After that, they failed to bring the best out of themselves in the sub-continent conditions. Australia lost the Test series by 2-1 against India during their previous outing in 2017.
