Gavaskar’s predictions and suggestions
Sunil Gavaskar believes that the Indian team should focus on winning the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series instead of the ICC World Test Championship final. He said, “I don’t think India can beat Australia 4-0. If it happens, it will be a big achievement, but it is not right to have expectations for it right now. I think the team should just try to win the series.” Should be done, whether it is 1-0, 2-0 or 3-1. This will bring stability in the team’s performance and the fans will also be proud of the team.

India’s position for WTC final
To make it to the ICC World Test Championship Final 2023-25, Team India will have to win the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 4-0. India has played the WTC final twice before and reaching it for the third time will be a big achievement. But this time the team needs to prove itself, because depending on the results of other countries can be risky. According to Gavaskar, there will definitely be pressure on Team India to win the series, but they will also have to understand that winning 4-0 is not only difficult but by focusing on it, they can also deviate from the real goal.
