Rohit's Team India has arrived in Ahmedabad for the fourth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Hosts Team India is leading the four-match series 2-1. Rohit and Co. have retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the record fourth time after defeating Australia in the first two Test matches of the high-profile series. After losing the first two matches of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the visitors staged an impressive comeback in Indore by winning the penultimate clash of the Test series.
Batting icon Steve Smith will continue to lead Australia in the absence of regular captain Pat Cummins. Pacer Cummins had flown back home after the 2nd Test to be with his unwell mother. Stand-in skipper Smith had guided Australia to a famous nine-wicket win over Rohit's India in the 3rd Test at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. With the win, Australia also qualified for the final of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC). Hosts India will aim to secure its berth in the WTC final by defeating Australia in the 4th Test at Ahmedabad. The final encounter of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be contested at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Thursday.
