With one day to go for the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy, a prestigious series between India and Australia, beginning on 22nd November at Perth's Optus Stadium, the Indian think tank consisting of coach Gautam Gambhir, interim skipper Jasprit Bumrah and ex-captain Virat Kohli were seen having an intimate discussion on the field.

The regular skipper Rohit Sharma is absent from the series opener due to personal reasons, which has elevated Bumrah as the skipper for the first Test. The fast bowler who will don the hat of the skipper will have an essential task at his hand to lead his side to victory after the embarrassment of the New Zealand series.

Coach Gautam Gambhir, an animated character on and off the field, was entirely involved with the two senior pros, Kohli and Bumrah. During the conversation between the three, Kohli was seen as the most active among them, gesturing something while having his pads and helmet on with his bat was in his hands.

The Indian superstar has been proactive in the nets since arriving at Down Under. Already having a phenomenal record, the right-hander would want to continue his prime run on the Australian soil. Meanwhile, Bumrah would wish to leave a mark with both his captaincy and bowling skills in the upcoming Test.

India Aim To Leave Behind New Zealand Setback

The harsh New Zealand series, which was quite a disaster for the Indian side, having lost their first series at home in 12 years, would be difficult to let go. The team struggled in both departments, and the loss was a wake-up call for the players and the management. However, this side seems determined to overcome their biggest defeat and perform better in the upcoming games.

On the other hand, Gambhir would want to prove his mettle that he is the right man for the job. Meanwhile, The Australian side, under the leadership of Pat Cummins, is exuding confidence about their chances in the opening Test. Their form and strategy make them a formidable opponent for the Indian team.
