BGT 2024-25: Surinder Khanna Urges India To Draw Inspiration From Past Wins
The team management opted to focus on net practice sessions and match simulation instead as they gear up for the marquee five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy starting on November 22 in Perth. Khanna believes that missing out on match practice could hinder India’s readiness for the challenging Australian conditions, where they’ll face pace, bounce, and a motivated host side.
Reflecting on past tours, Khanna emphasised how match-practice had served India well in the past. During the 2018-19 series, India played a four-day game against a Cricket Australia XI and followed it up in the 2020-21 series with a three-day match against Australia A. The absence of a similar lead-up game this time around, especially after a disappointing 0-3 Test series defeat to New Zealand, is cause for concern.
