Border-Gavaskar Trophy Is Right On Par With Ashes, Says Australia's Mitchell Starc
Gavaskar Trophy: Australia’s fast-bowling spearhead Mitchell Starc believes the Border-Gavaskar Trophy is right on par with the Ashes as the biggest series to feature in for men’s players in the country. Australia have not won the Border-Gavaskar trophy since 2014/15, as India prevailed over them in the 2018/19 and 2020/21 series. For this year, the series has been expanded to five Test matches, happening for the first time since the 1991/92 season, when it begins on November 22 at Perth.
"Being five matches now it's probably right on par with an Ashes series. We always want to win every game at home and we know India are a very strong team. As we're placed at the minute we're the top two teams on the Test ladder.”
“So a very exciting series coming up for the fans and certainly the players. Hopefully, when we're sitting there on the 8th of January we have that trophy back on our shores," Starc told Wide World of Sports.
