India Cricket Team is all set to undergo a massive overhaul in Test cricket ahead of the next Test series in England in the coming summer of 2025. As per the reports in Cricbuzz, it is learned that Ravichandran Ashwin's retirement is the first one in the ongoing tour, and more are likely to follow. 
The India off-spinner, after the Test match against Australia, which was the third in the series at Brisbane, decided to retire. This decision surprised many because it came in the middle of the series; also, there have been reports that he was conveyed about the future of the team, and they are seeing him as the third-choice spinner after Sundar and Jadeja. 
The reports added that the BCCI is following the same template as they did in 2008. During that time, senior players retired in quick succession as they were conveyed by the BCCI that they wanted to set the stage for the transition. And it won't be a surprise if something similar follows this time too. 
If the reports are to be believed then it is likely that Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and  Ravindra Jadeja might be on the radar. There were earlier reports ahead of the BGT, which claimed that if the big four of the team failed to get going, they might be dropped. 
<h2>Ravichandran Ashwin's retirement might be the panic door for Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja</h2>
Ravichandran Ashwin's retirement might be the panic door for Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja. In the ongoing series, the two senior batters have come under massive scanner for their poor batting, and hence, something big might be on the way. 
The last two Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 will be a massive game for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. If they fail to score, there might be a chance that they might not board flight to England for the tour. Also, with WTC Final place online, the two games will be more than just the games. 
The Australia tour over the years has gained a reputation for bringing cricketing careers to an end. Several stalwarts have faced the same over the years, and it won't be a surprise if something follows again.

After Ashwin, a few more retirements are on the way as India set to undergo a massive overhaul

India captain Rohit Sharma has been under a lot of scanner for his poor returns in Test cricket. The skipper hasn't been at his best with the bat in the longest format of the game, and this has seen him facing a lot of flak, with many calling him a burden on the team. 
Things have turned bad to worse for Rohit Sharma in the ongoing Australia tour as he has failed terribly with the bat in the two games that he has played. The batter missed the first game due to the birth of his child and joined the team in Adelaide, where the pink-ball Test was played. 
Rohit Sharma sacrificed his batting position for KL Rahul as he moved down the order but didn't have the kind of outing he would've wanted. The premier batter failed to set the stage in Adelaide as he was back in the hut for low scores in both innings and faced a lot of criticism. 
The same fate unfolded for him in the next game in Gabba. The India captain managed just 10 runs in the third Test and it saw more criticism for him. There emerged a lot of calls related to his retirement as well. But the skipper has now made a massive statement. 
<h2>As long as my mind, my body, and my feet are moving well, I'm happy - Rohit Sharma </h2>
Rohit Sharma admitted that there is no harm in accepting that he has failed, but he is preparing well, and in his mind, he has ticked all the boxes. He said that as long as his mind, body, and feet are moving well, he will continue playing. Speaking during press-conference, he explained: 
"I have not batted well. There's no harm in accepting that. But I know what's in my mind, how I'm preparing myself. All those boxes are very much ticked. It's just about spending as much time as possible, which I'm pretty sure I'm just there. As long as my mind, my body, and my feet are moving well, I'm pretty happy with how things are planning out for me."
Rohit Sharma admitted that his preparations are right on track, and he believes that a big score is around the corner. He admitted that although his runs haven't come he his is feeling good. He elaborated: 
"Sometimes those numbers can tell you that it's been a while since he's got big runs. But for a person like me, I think it's all about how I feel in my mind, what kind of prep I'm having before each game, and how I'm feeling about myself. That's the most important thing. And I'm feeling good about myself, to be honest. Runs are obviously not showing that, but inside it's a different feeling."

Rohit Sharma becoming a burden on team? Captain makes massive statement amid criticism

India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin made a blockbuster announcement after the Gabba Test against Australia ended. The veteran all-rounder announced his retirement from international cricket with immediate effect on Wednesday (18th December). 
Ravichandran Ashwin played his last Test for India in Adelaide, which was a pink-ball Test. However, he was replaced by Ravindra Jadeja in the Brisbane Test, and as the game concluded, it marked an end to an era in Indian cricket with off-spinner calling time on his career. 
Ravichandran Ashwin retiring out of nowhere and in the middle of the series surprised many, and it raised many speculations as to why the all-rounder took the decision in the middle of the series, especially with the series on the line and two more games to go. 
However, reports in Indian Express made a massive revelation. It is learned that although Ravichandran Ashwin had not decided to retire before boarding flight for Perth. But the all-rounder had told his family that he is thinking about retirement because of the long-term injury that has been bothering him. 
His family, too, was on the same page with him as they also told him to consider retiring. The off-spinner had decided that he would make the decision after the end of the tour, but his getting dropped from the team for the Brisbane Test forced him to take the decision early.
<h2>Ravichandran Ashwin had already decided to call time on his career after the home series against New Zealand</h2>
The other section of reports in PTI claimed that Ravichandran Ashwin had already decided to call time on his career after the home series against New Zealand. He also had conveyed to the team management, asking about his assurance in the playing XI for the Australia tour. 
The reports claimed that Ravichandran Ashwin had told management that if they won't be playing him in the Australia series then he would prefer staying at home and would not travel. 
Ravichandran Ashwin will now be heading home. He will be going as one of the best players in the game. He ended his career as the second-highest wicket-taker for India in Tests, ending with with 537 scalps in 106 games, leaving him only behind Anil Kumble (619 wickets).

The Indian tailenders showed a fighting spirit, which helped the visitors end the third test against Australia at the Gabba in a draw. It has left the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy at 1-1 with two matches left to play. Now, these two teams will lock horns in the fourth match at the MCG on December 26, which will be the Boxing Day Test.
India were under so much pressure, but the lower order helped India to avoid the follow-on, which made a big effect on the result. Australia made a bold declaration on Day 5, but the rain had something different to offer.
The bad light and rain had the last laugh, and the game ended with a draw. It must be a confidence booster result for the Indians after the way their top order failed in the first innings. This draw has certainly helped India to stay in the race for the World Test Championship 2023-25. But still, the way to the final is very difficult.
<h2>WTC Final 2023-25: Here's how India can qualify for the World Test Championship Final after the Gabba Draw</h2>
India would accept the result of the third test because at one stage they were on the way to losing the game. That would have been the end of roads for Rohit Sharma and his men for the WTC final. But after this draw, India have two more games left in this cycle. They will play two matches against Australia in Melbourne and Sydney.
After this draw, India have retained their third position on the WTC cycle with a percentage of 55.89. South Africa (63.33) are at the top while Australia (58.89) are on the table. The final fight is between these two teams. If India can sneak past Australia in the last two games and win those matches. They will take their percentage to 60.52, and Australia will be out even if they win against Sri Lanka 2-0.
That means India and South Africa will qualify for the WTC final. However, if India win one and draw one, they will jump to the second place above Australia. In that case, India need Sri Lanka to draw one of two tests against Australia.
But if India lose one of two remaining matches, then Sri Lanka beating Australia 2-0 will be the only way for India to reach. Meanwhile, South Africa have two tests against Pakistan. If they win one game, they will qualify. But if they lose both matches, then India need one win against Australia to qualify.

Elite Indian off-spinner Ravi Ashwin has officially announced his retirement from International Cricket on Wednesday, 18th of December. The 38-year-old is the second highest wicket-taker of Team India in the longest format of the game and International Cricket as well. 
Ashwin made his Test-debut for the Men in Blue on the 6th of November, 2011 and since his debut, the veteran spinner has gone on to take part in 106 five-day Cricket matches and has dismissed opposition batters 537 times. Only the legendary Anil Kumble (619 wickets) has picked up more wickets for Team India in the longest format of the game. 
The 38-year-old also participated in 41 WTC contests for the Men in Blue and has 195 scalps next to his name, the highest by any player for now. 
The off-spinner's retirement comes at a time when the entire world of Cricket were focussed on the Gabba Test-Match between India and Australia and post the conclusion of that match, Ashwin announced his decision to hang his Cricketing boots. 
He was spotted getting involved in a lengthy chat with former Indian skipper and elite batsman Virat Kohli in the dressing-room during the rain-break after the Tea-Session on the 5th day of the Gabba Test-Match, following which they shared an emotional hug with each other.

<blockquote>
<h3>"This is my last day as a player of Team India in International Cricket. I still feel that I have a lot to offer as a cricketer and I will be doing that in Club-Level Cricket. So this is my final day as a player in International Cricket. I have had a tremendous amount of fun since my debut in 2011 and I have created a lot of fun and enjoyable memories along side our captain Rohit (Sharma), Virat Kohli and several other team-mates, "Ashwin said in the post match presentation of the Gabba Test-Match. </h3>
</blockquote>
Let us remind you that the veteran off-spinner has announced his retirement from just International Cricket and he will continue to take part in T20 leagues like the IPL and the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL). 
Five-time IPL winners Chennai Super Kings (CSK) secured the services of Ashwin in the 2025 IPL Mega-Auction and he will be making his much awaited comeback in the yellow jersey of the franchise. It's highly likely that he will be calling time on his Cricket career alongside the legendary MS Dhoni.

Ace Indian spinner Ravi Ashwin announces his retirement from International Cricket following the conclusion of the Gabba Test

IND vs AUS Day 5: The last day of the Gabba test and we are heading to a possible draw for this test. The regular stoppage in the game due to rain has eaten up a big chunk of play time resulting in the two innings left in the last day of the test. 
India avoided the follow on the last evening, and this gives them a chance to draw the match or even win it if they outplay Australia on Day 5. Jasprit Bumrah and Akashdeep did the brilliant job with the bat and now they have to perform with the ball. 
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202412/image_430x256_67623e0859a9a.jpg" alt="">
India’s last-wicket pair showed remarkable resilience, adding 47 crucial runs that not only frustrated the Australians but also kept the visitors alive in the contest. Their partnership has made defeat less certain for India and left Australia pondering their next move. With at least 92 overs left in the match, the Aussies face a tricky balancing act if they want to pull off a dramatic victory.
The most likely strategy would be to bat aggressively in the current session, set a challenging target, and then give India two sessions to survive. But Australia will also need to factor in the weather and their stretched bowling resources.
With no Josh Hazlewood available for the second innings and Mitchell Marsh barely bowling, the burden has largely fallen on Starc, Cummins, and Lyon. Overworking their three-man attack could backfire, adding another layer of intrigue to an already fascinating Test match.
The Australian Innings have been started and they are showing intent right from the second over. Jasprit Bumrah, however, just took one ball to get rid of Usman Khawaja. He also sent Labuschagne back for cheap and Akash Deep got McSweeney. This is really going to be an intresting one. 
<h2>IND vs AUS DAY 5 Weather Forecast</h2>
The weather gods have been anything but kind to this Test match. Day 1 was a total washout, with just a few deliveries bowled before the rain took over. Day 2 offered a glimmer of hope with fewer interruptions, but Day 3 brought more frustration, limiting play to just 33 overs. Day 4 followed the same gloomy script, leaving players and fans exasperated.
<img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202412/image_430x256_67623d40e0562.jpg" alt="">
Unfortunately, the forecast for Day 5 doesn’t look any brighter. Thunderstorms and heavy rain are expected throughout the day, with little hope for uninterrupted action. Temperatures are predicted to hover around 26°C, but it’s the 90-100% chance of rain, 90% humidity, and strong 16 km/h southeast winds that might seal the Test’s fate.
With the weather overshadowing the cricket, fans are left to wonder if this match will ever get the chance to reach a fair conclusion.
<h2>The Gabba Pitch Report</h2>
The pitch has held up well compared to the last time these teams played here and looks excellent for batting, with good pace and bounce on offer. At the same time, bowlers like Bumrah, Siraj, and Akash have managed to extract plenty from it, making it a balanced surface. With limited play so far due to weather interruptions, both teams are likely to adopt an aggressive approach, setting up an exciting finish to the match.

The continuous breaks in the game is really frustrating as two innings are left in the last day of the test match. Though the several stop and play served as favor to the home team, Australia must be hating it now.

India vs Australia 3rd Test is on its last day and both teams would be hoping a result. Weather forecast, however, isn't on the favor and there are going to be stoppages for sure.

[LIVE] IND vs AUS DAY 5 Weather Forecast,  Rain Prediction and The Gabba Pitch report

-live-ind-vs-aus-day-5-weather-forecast-rain-prediction-and-the-gabba-pitch-report-

A really exciting and interesting Test-Series is taking place currently between fierce-rivals India and Australia. So far two contests have been played in the series and both team have managed to win one match each. The current Gabba Test-Match is facing constant interruptions due to rain. 
But, the Mighty Australians have performed in a much better way in this contest. Especially the duo of Steve Smith and Travis Head have troubled the Indian Team by scoring centuries. With this, a big record of the legendary Sachin Tendulkar is in danger of getting broken. One of Steven Smith or Virat Kohli can go on to break that record. 
<h2>History of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series</h2>
The Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) series which takes place between the Indian Cricket Team and the Australian Cricket Team started in the year 1996. The Little Master of India Sachin Tendulkar took part in this Test-Series between 1996-2013. During this period, he managed to score nine hundreds in 34 encounters, which is the highest number of hundreds scored by any batter in this particular series. 
But now, this record is in danger of getting broken. Australia's Steven Smith and India's Virat Kohli have also scored the same number of tons as Sachin and both of these players have an excellent chance of scripting history.
<h2>Virat Kohli and Steven Smith have scored nine hundreds in the BGT series</h2>
Talking about the legendary Virat Kohli first, he played his first BGT series in 2011 and since then he has gone on to score nine centuries in 27 contests. Steve Smith of Australia on the other hand also has nine hundreds next to his name but he has done it in fewer games i.e. 21 matches. Whoever scores a century first will break the record of Sachin Tendulkar. 
<h2>Two matches are still left to be played in the current series</h2>
Currently, just the third encounter of the 2024 Border-Gavaskar Trophy is going on. Two matches are still left to be played. That means if everything goes according to the plan, then the duo of Kohli and Smith will have four innings to play in.
Both of them have a great chance of breaking the record of Tendulkar but it remains to be seen who succeeds in getting to the 10 hundreds landmark first. At present, everyone has their eyes set on the Gabba Test-Match as the 5th and the final day of that contest is still pending. However, due to constant rain interruptions, it's looking likely that this fixture is going to end as a draw.

Since the inception of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) series in 1996, only three batters have managed to score nine hundreds in the history of the series i.e. Sachin Tendulkar, Steven Smith and Virat Kohli. All three of them are tied at nine tons and Kohli & Smith have a excellent chance of surpassing the legendary Sachin Tendulkar

India captain Rohit Sharma yet again had a dreadful outing with the bat in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The skipper was back in the hut for a low score in the third Test against Australia, which is underway at the Gabba in Brisbane. 
Rohit Sharma, who was unbeaten at the stumps on Day 3, resumed the batting on Day 4 and looked confident. The India skipper left the ball pretty well and also played a gorgeous cover drive as well. With the way he batted, it seemed that he would bail the team out of trouble. 
However, this wasn't the case, as Pat Cummins had his number yet again. The India captain, after facing 27 balls, was back in the hut as the Australia skipper found the outside edge of his bat yet, and the skipper had to take the long walk back to the pavilion. 
As he walked back, he looked extremely dejected and had his head down. However, one gesture of his caught the attention of many, and it made many speculate that the captain might announce his retirement from the longest format of the game in the ongoing series as well. 
<h2>Rohit Sharma leaves his gloves lying in front of the dugout</h2>
As Rohit Sharma walked up to the dressing room, he left his gloves lying in front of the dugout. This often is done by players when they are about to announce their retirement. 
Here's the picture of his gloves:
<img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202412/image_870x_6761042514f38.jpg" alt="">
Rohit Sharma ended with an innings of 10 runs off 27 balls. He has come under a lot of scanner for his poor effort with the bat in the entire Test season. He failed in both series at home against Bangladesh and New Zealand and also hasn't been at his best in the ongoing Test series against Australia. 
Rohit Sharma failed in the Adelaide Test and it was expected he would be back among runs. But that hasn't been the case. The move to get back in the middle order surely isn't working for him, and it remains to be seen what will be his future in the longest format of the game. 
With two more games remaining in the series, Rohit Sharma would want to reply to all the criticism in style. However, if he fails to set the stage on fire, it might be curtains for him in the longest format of the game.

India captain Rohit Sharma yet again had a dreadful outing with the bat in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25

Rohit Sharma almost confirms his retirement with this gestures

Rohit-Sharma-almost-confirms-his-retirement-with-this-gestures

The Indian Cricket Team is currently in big trouble in the third Test-Match of the ongoing 2024 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series versus the Australians. While the home side has managed to put up a big 1st inning score of 445 runs on the board, the Men in Blue are struggling out there in the middle, having lost four wickets for a score of just 51 runs. 
Once again, the Rohit Sharma-led team has suffered a top-order collapse. Apart from opening batter KL Rahul, no other player is able to settle down at the crease. The entire responsibility of saving the Gabba Test-Match is lying on the shoulders of skipper Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul. 
Meanwhile, wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant is not having a good time in Australia and something has happened to him which had never happened to him before in his Test career. 
<h2>Australian captain Pat Cummins is getting the better of Rishabh Pant</h2>
Australian skipper Pat Cummins has emerged as a big problem for Rishabh Pant on the Cricket field. Notably, the fast bowler has managed to get the better of the Indian wicketkeeper batter on multiple occasions in the current series. Before this, he never succeeded to get the wicket of Pant. 
Talking about their H2H stats before the 2024 BGT series, Pant and Cummins had faced each other on 11 occasions. In these 11 occasions, Rishabh scored 91 runs versus the Aussie pacer and the 31-year-old had not found success in getting Pant out even once. 
But now, things have changed in a drastic manner. In the last five Test innings in which Pant and Cummins have faced each other, the latter had managed to score just 22 runs in 41 deliveries and he has also been dismissed by Cummins on three occasions in the current series. This means that the 27-year-old is becoming is becoming a constant victim of the Aussie skipper. 
<h2>Rishabh Pant's bat has not fired even once in the current BGT series</h2>
In the currently ongoing 2024 Border Gavaskar Trophy series, Rishabh Pant has failed to perform well and his bat has not shown the same kind of fear for which he is well known across the world. 
In the opening Test-Match in Perth, the 27-year-old managed to score 37 runs with the bat in the 1st inning and only a single run in the 2nd inning. Then in the Adelaide Test-Match, he scored 21 runs in the 1st inning and 28 runs in the following one. These scores show that he has not crossed the 50 runs mark even once in the current edition of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. 
The Southpaw has managed to get off to good starts but he has failed to convert those starts into big knocks. Even in the ongoing Gabba Test-Match, the former Delhi Capitals skipper got dismissed off the bowling of Pat Cummins, managing to score just nine runs in 12 deliveries.
<h2>Rishabh Pant will have to play important knocks if India want to have a chance of winning the series. </h2>
This is the same Rishabh Pant who was batting tremendously well in the home New Zealand Test-Series, but as soon as he arrived in Australia, he has found it hard to score runs. However, Pant still has one inning in the Gabba Test and 2 Test-Matches left in the series where he can turn around his fortunes and India's fortunes as well. 
It remains to be seen how many runs the Southpaw manages to amass for the Men in Blue in the remaining contests. If the Indian Cricket Team want to win their 3rd consecutive BGT series in Australia, then Pant will have to find a way to rediscover his destructive form for which he is known and recognized in the world of Cricket.

Elite Indian Wicketkeeper Batsman Rishabh Pant once again failed to get going in the ongoing BGT Test-Series between India and Australia and fell prey to Pat Cummins. The problems of the Men in Blue have increased in the Gabba Test-Match and their chances of winning the match from here are looking very bleak.

IND vs AUS Day 4: The third Test between India and Australia at the Gabba in Brisbane has been heavily disrupted by frequent rain, turning the match into a stop-start affair. Each time the players stepped onto the field, the rain returned, creating a frustrating masquerade for everyone involved. In the brief spells of play that were possible, things didn’t go India’s way, as they struggled to find their footing under challenging conditions.
Australia resumed their innings in the morning, adding around 40 runs to their overnight total. Alex Carey led the charge on the field, but surprisingly, he opted for a more cautious approach instead of the aggressive batting everyone had anticipated. It was a steady, calculated start rather than the fiery onslaught fans were hoping to see.
India’s innings got off to a poor start as Yashasvi Jaiswal edged his very first ball for four before being caught off his second. The team looked to Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli for some stability, but both departed cheaply, chasing wide deliveries outside off. Frequent rain interruptions only made matters worse, denying the batters a chance to settle into any rhythm.

The struggles continued when Rishabh Pant nicked one to Mitchell Starc, leaving India in deep trouble at 44/4. The constant breaks in play and relentless Australian bowling kept the Indian lineup under immense pressure.
India find themselves in a deep hole, trailing by a massive 394 runs, and their chances of a comeback in this game seem slim at best. But as grim as their fortunes look on the field, the weather forecast for tomorrow paints an even darker picture. 
Let's take a look at the IND vs AUS DAY 4 Weather Forecast and Rain Possibility in Brisbane:

The weather gods seem far from pleased with this Test match. Day 1 was a complete washout, with just a handful of overs bowled before rain took over. Day 2 offered some respite with fewer interruptions, but Day 3 was another frustrating affair, allowing only 33 overs of play amidst constant stoppages.
The outlook for Day 4 isn’t promising either. Thunderstorms and heavy rain are forecast to persist until 2 pm, leaving little hope for uninterrupted action. As the weather continues to dominate the narrative, cricket fans are left wondering if this Test will ever get a fair chance to unfold.
<h3>Rain Prediction </h3>
The day is expected to have a temperature of around 28°C with the rain chances hovering around 70%. The humidity levels of the city would be around 82% and strong winds of over 15KmpH are expected to gust towards North-east.
With rain clouds threatening to take center stage once again, it’s not just India’s batting lineup that needs saving—this entire match hangs by a thread. Australia are in a very strong position and the play of a day can win them this test match while Indian fans would want the rain to play the spoilsport for this test.
