Border Gavaskar Trophy can be retained by indian Team..!?
Will the indian team draw the fourth Test match against the Australian team? There is an expectation. If the indian team draws the fourth Test match being held in Melbourne, there is a high chance that the indian team will tie the series 1-1 and retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. How will that happen? Let's see. Currently, at the end of the fourth day of the fourth Test match, the Australian team is leading by 333 runs. The indian team has a chance to set a target of 350 runs on the fifth day. It is difficult to achieve such a big target on the fifth day of the Test match. At the same time, dealing with the Australian bowling and drawing is also a challenging matter. The indian team is in its current state, and the right decision would be to play for a draw. If india draws the fourth Test, the series will be tied 1-1. The weather report has indicated that there is a possibility of rain during the fifth Test to be played in Sydney. The previous Test matches in Sydney have been drawn due to bad weather.
Therefore, this time the Sydney Test match is likely to be drawn due to rain. If that happens, the Test series will end in a draw 1-1. In this series, australia has won one match and india has won one match. The indian team won the first match by a margin of 295 runs. In the second match, australia won by 10 wickets. The third match ended in a draw due to rain. Therefore, if india manages to play only the fifth day of the fourth Test match and draw it, they can draw the Sydney Test match as well and level the series. india has already won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy four times in a row. The last time india retained the trophy was in 2021 when they defeated australia in a Test series on indian soil. Therefore, if the current series ends in a draw, the winner of the previous series will retain the trophy.
