The date of the Border Gavaskar Test series is getting closer. After losing the series against New Zealand 3-0, the remaining hopes now depend on this series. India has to do something to win this series 4-0. But there is no doubt that the Indian team will face difficulties on Australian soil. Losing the series against New Zealand has already dampened morale.
In it, the math of the World Test Championship 2025 final has become complicated. So there is no doubt that the Indian team will be under pressure. But the sports lovers had a question whether the Indian team would go there to adapt to the environment.

Team Departure in Two Groups
Now the question has been answered and the Indian team will leave for the Australia tour in two groups. According to the Times of India, Team India will leave for Australia on November 10 and 11. Logistical constraints have made it impossible to arrange a single commercial flight for the entire team. Although these dates have been revealed, no official announcement has been made yet.
There is doubt whether Rohit Sharma will go with the Indian team or not. Because when he was asked in the press conference whether he would play in the first test or not, he did not say anything clearly. So there was a lot of confusion over his statement. Therefore, former cricketer Sunil Gavaskar advised that if he does not want to go with the team, he should put the captaincy on the shoulders of another player.
Meanwhile, the Indian team has to go early to adapt to the environment in Australia. Otherwise, it will take time to adapt and it may affect the Test series.
