India and Australia are going to play 1sr Test match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy at Nagpur Stadium starting from 9th February 2023. The series is a significant event as it will decide India’s chances of qualifying for the final of World Test Championship. A lot is expected from a lot of Indian and Australian players but some of them are certainly going to fail in the 1st Test.
IND vs AUS 1st Test: 3 Players Expected to Fail
1- Virat Kohli
The former Indian cricket team captain is going through the leanest patch of his career. His average against Australia in the Test matches in India is very low. He has smashed only 1 century against Australia in Test matches in India. Kohli has a glaring weakness against spin and Nagpur is going to be a turning pitch. He is most likely going to fail in the 1st Test of the series.
2– Pat Cummins
Pat Cummins is one of the best bowlers in Test cricket right now. He is also the captain of Australian cricket team. Cummins is expected to fail on the Nagpur pitch as it is not going to assist pacers. He is most likely going to go get only 2 wickets in the entire Test match.

3- Rohit Sharma
The Indian cricket team captain is not a success story in Test cricket. He just recently came back to form in the ODIs but his fitness is still a big issue. We don’t see Rohit Sharma posing a threat to Australian bowling line-up in the 1st Test.
