Australia vs India 1st Test: Border Gavaskar Trophy has started. The first match of the series is being played at Optus Stadium in Perth. Team India is being captained by fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah in this match. Coach Gautam Gambhir and the selectors have expressed confidence in many young players in the Perth Test. Due to which, this time on Australia tour, veteran batsman Cheteshwar Pujara was not made a part of Team India, which has been quite surprising for the fans. And looking at the way Team India players batted on the first day of the Perth Test, it seems that India missed Cheteshwar Pujara.
Young Team India made fun of
Team India is playing without Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill in the Perth Test. This time the selectors have chosen a very young team. However, fans believed that Cheteshwar Pujara was to be selected in Team India for the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Pujara has an excellent record against Australia.
Last time, Pujara was a part of Team India in the Border Gavaskar Trophy and he also performed amazingly. Pujara has scored more runs than Virat Kohli in the Border Gavaskar Trophy. He has 2074 runs in his name in BGT. Which includes 11 half-centuries and 5 centuries. Now, seeing the poor batting of Team India before the Perth Test, users are making a lot of fun on social media.
