Border Gavaskar Trophy 2023: India is set to welcome Australia for a four-match Test series as part of the Border Gavaskar Trophy, with the first game beginning on February 9 in Nagpur. For the eagerly awaited series, both sides are working hard to be ready, and great games are predicted. Australia has put up their training camp outside of Bangalore, whereas the hosts, India, have located their base directly in Nagpur.
Players toil hard at net session
The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, is preparing for an important Test series as they aim to secure a spot in the World Test Championship Final. The series holds great significance as a win by a margin of 3-1 or 2-0 would ensure their qualification for the final. Despite missing key players such as Jasprit Bumrah and Rishabh Pant, the Board of Control for Cricket in India has put together a strong squad, consisting of top players like Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and R Ashwin.
The team has been working hard in the preparatory camp in Nagpur, where they have been training to get themselves in the best possible shape for the series. The players understand the importance of this series and are putting in extra effort to make sure that they are ready for the challenges that lie ahead. With the first Test just a few days away, the players are focused and determined to give their best on the field.

Dravid in a video said, “Everyone looks in good shape and it’s nice to get the Test team together again. After so much of white-ball cricket, it’s good to get back to Tests. Also, for the players to switch from white ball to red-ball. We have been focusing on close-in catches, slip fielding, and things which you don’t get to work on when you meet players two days before a series.” The Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur will host the first Test from February 9 through 13.
