It will be played in Australia on the 2024-2025 season as a four-match Test affair, starting in December 2024. All these matches are vividly associated with ferocious contest and quality cricket, with great importance for both teams while also supporting the efforts toward World Test Championship points in the board; hence, all matches are crucial.

Squads

Official squads are yet to be announced, but most of the key players from both teams are likely to be featured. On the Indian side, it will feature seasoned players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja and promising ones such as Shubman Gill and Mohammed Siraj. On the Australian side, it will feature leading figures like Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, and Marnus Labuschagne. After a pretty even contest, both the sides would pretty much finalize their final two lineups based on form, fitness, and conditions closer to the series.

Schedule and Venues

The four-match Test series are set for December 2024 and going into January 2025. Among the most iconic venues which have harbored such matches for Australia include the Adelaide Oval, Melbourne Cricket Ground, Sydney Cricket Ground, and Brisbane's Gabba. With these dates, this would work quite well with the Boxing Day Test at the MCG and with the New Year's Test at the SCG for cricket traditions.

News and Key Highlights

It is the most significant series between both teams in Border-Gavaskar Trophy. So, they will look for momentum for the World Test Championship. In the last Border Gavaskar series, India had just come out from the bottom of the barrel, and this time, Australia may feel great about getting redemption at home. The pitches are going to give it on an even keel, where the Aussie variation that is quick and bouncy is going to pose an interesting contrast to the Indian surfaces, which spin quite well, and raise the stakes yet another notch. The interest is going to be much more on how adapted the Indians can be to Aussie conditions, plus Australia's strong home record.
