To win the series against India, the opposing captain roared, we have to keep up the pressure.

The Border Gavaskar Trophy will be played between India and Australia in November. For this, the Indian team’s line-up has been announced. Team India won the last edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. On the other hand, Australia, captained by Pat Cummins, defeated India in the 2023 ODI World Cup final. But Cummins is yet to be part of the team that wins the Test series against India. Now he’s making a big statement about the series.

Pat Cummins: The only goal is to beat India

Pat Cummins said at his book launch that winning the Test series against India is the most important thing I want to add to my name. It’s especially important to do this back home. Like me, most Australian cricket fans expect us to perform well every time we play at home. India are the only team Australia has not beaten in the last 16 Test series. His team has failed to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy since the 2014-15 season.

Australia lost twice to India at home

Pat Cummins said: ‘We have lost the last two series to them in Australia and this coming series is very important for us. Our team is in a really good spot right now and there doesn’t seem to be any reason why it can’t perform well. He said that no matter which team we play, we want to perform well but India is different so this season will be very important.

Ahead of this important series, India suffered defeats in their first two Test matches at home against New Zealand. Not only this, its star batsmen captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are also struggling to score runs. Cummins said whenever a team is under pressure, it’s not a bad thing to fight it. But he has excelled here before. Our job is to try to keep them under pressure.
