Former India Star Speaks Out On Rohit Sharma-led Side’s Best Chance To Win BGT Tests

Before India and Australia lock horns in the third test match, Harbhajan Singh has offered his take on the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy series. He stated that India’s best odds of winning in the upcoming games will be in Sydney and Melbourne. He also stated that both teams have the potential to sweep the series in the ongoing BGT season.

“If we look at this as a series of three matches, India has to win two out of these. Their best chances will be, I think, in Sydney and Melbourne. Anyway, if you play your best cricket at The Gabba and win there, then you will definitely win one match out of Melbourne or Sydney. So you should think about that. The equality of the first two Tests shows that both teams have the ability to come back. Australia has come back; now maybe it’s India’s turn to turn the tables,” Harbhajan Singh said as per a release from Star Sports.

Brisbane Test To Be A Make-or-Break Moment for Team India

The Brisbane Test is something India needs to win because it will have a significant impact.

He also lost the three-match home series to New Zealand, bringing the total to four.

Team India’s chances in the World Test Championship are also up in the air, as South Africa has emerged as a new threat to their inclusion in the summit clash. India is now ranked third, with Australia at number two. It remains to be seen whether India fights back in the BGT series.
