Almanac Cricket – The Border-Gavaskar Trophy

 

The 2024/25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series begins in Perth tomorrow. Our regular cricket correspondent ‘Citrus’ Bob Utber will be following the series closely and providing day by day reports on The Footy Almanac as the summer unfolds. Feel free to submit your take on play as well.

 

To say that the build-up to the series has been low-key is something of an understatement. Apart from the debut of Nathan McSweeney, India’s recent poor form against New Zealand and concerns about India’s top order there hasn’t been much of note to read about.

 

For those of you who haven’t been following preparations very closely, here’s a link to provide you with the when and where of the five Tests.
