India is currently in a difficult position in the WTC 2025-27 points table and may need a huge Border-Gavaskar Trophy series win, possibly 5-0 or 4-1, to stay in a strong position for the final.
Ricky Ponting admitted that the Australia National Cricket Team will face another tough challenge in India in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, but he also feels the visitors can take confidence from New Zealand and South Africa winning Test series in India in recent years.
Australia last won a Test series in India way back in 2004-05. They sealed the four-match Test series 2-1 under Adam Gilchrist’s captaincy, as then-regular captain Ponting was injured. The Kangaroos won the Tests in Nagpur and Bengaluru, while India secured a victory in Mumbai. Amid this, Mohammed Shami takes jaw-dropping catch off his own bowling to dismiss Harsh Dubey in Duleep Trophy.
Ricky Ponting warns India over spin-friendly pitches ahead of Australia series
The legendary batter further explained, “India probably, if they want to win more games at home, needs to be a bit more thoughtful with the way that they prepare their wickets there. I think they've gone way too far with preparing spinning wickets that their batters haven't been able to cope with and opposition teams have been able to play better in India than they have.”
Ricky Ponting predicts major Australia changes for India Tests
He signed off by saying, “I think the Australian team will probably be slightly different come that time of year as well when Australia is in India. I think some changes will be made to our batting line-up in particular. I can't see us taking all our fast bowlers to India either if the wickets look like they're going to be the way that they've been the last few tours there.”
