The Border-Gavaskar Trophy is to be played between India and Australia from next month. The Indian team will tour Australia for this series. This time in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, a 5-match Test series will be played between the two teams for which the Indian team has been announced. Delhi fast bowler Harshit Rana and Andhra all-rounder Nitish Reddy have been included for the first time in the 18-member Indian team led by Rohit Sharma for the Australia tour.
The surprising thing is that Mohammed Shami has not been included in the team selected for the series against Australia. Mohammed Shami has been out of the team for almost a year due to injury. He had ankle surgery which took him a long time to recover. Although till a few days ago it was expected that Shami would be fit till the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, but now it has become clear that it will take time for the fast bowler to return to the field. Apart from Shami, Kuldeep Yadav has also been shown the way out of the team. He will have to miss the Australia tour due to injury.

Actually, Kuldeep Yadav has been advised long-term rehabilitation for his back injury. Axar Patel has been dropped from the team selected for the Australia series. Washington Sundar, who took 11 wickets in the ongoing Test in Pune, has been included in the team. Rituraj Gaikwad’s name was also being discussed for this tour but he too has not been given a chance because he had already been appointed the captain of India A team going on Australia tour. Cheteshwar Pujara, who was out for a long time, also could not return to the team. Pujara had made important contributions with the bat on the last 2 Australia tours.
