IND vs AUS: First Test between India And Australia Starting From Today, Australia Wins The Toss

 After weeks and weeks of build-up and complot and plaguing about the pitch, in a few hours from now, the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy will start from Thursday onwards in Nagpur. Throughout four Tests, reputations will be built or burnt down. What is the secret surrounding the Playing XI captain Rohit Sharma deciding to go with or Who will be the third pacer? Where will Shubman Gill bat? All these burning questions will be answered very shortly. 

The present situation is such that even Rohit is not sure whom to play and drop. On the eve of the series opener, Rohit did nothing to help ease the media and fans’ suspense. It’s adding further to the mystery of India’s Playing XI. Former India Kapil Dev reckons Gill should be the man for the job. 

IND vs AUS: The Update 

Australia has won the toss. After this Australia elected to bat against Team India. Articulating the Test matches played between India and Australia (IND vs AUS), a total of 102 Test matches have been played between India and Australia. Out of all teams, India has won 30 matches while Australia has won 43 matches. 28 matches played between the two teams were drawn, while 1 match was tied.

The fans are likely to miss all-rounder Cameron Green, who is still recovering from his finger injury. Also inaccessible are pacers Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc. This could mean Todd Murphy could be handed a debut, to start alongside off-spinner Nathan Lyon.
