Border-Gavaskar Trophy: Ahead of the highly anticipated third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) in Brisbane, cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar has weighed in on the current state of the series, stating that momentum has shifted to Australia following recent developments.
Australia Takes the Upper Hand After Adelaide Triumph
The third Test will take place at Brisbane’s iconic The Gabba starting Saturday. Gavaskar highlighted that after India’s disappointing 10-wicket loss in the Adelaide Test, Australia now has the upper hand in terms of momentum.
The 10-Day Gap Impact on Team India
While India had the upper hand after their victory in the Perth Test, the 10-day gap before the next match disrupted their rhythm. Gavaskar noted this gap as a significant factor in the momentum shift.
“The momentum that the Indian team got in Perth was lost during the 10-day gap. Now the momentum is with Australia because they have won this Test match,” Gavaskar said.
Eyes on The Gabba: A Crucial Test for Both Teams
With the third Test at The Gabba looming, Gavaskar emphasized that Australia’s win has given them a psychological edge going into the Brisbane clash. This sets the stage for what promises to be an exciting, high-pressure encounter.
