Will INDIA Win Test Series Against Australia? – The current Indian cricket captain, Rohit Sharma, has been in charge for over a year now, and the question arises whether his era has truly begun. The start of his captaincy has been somewhat shaky in Test cricket, with Rohit missing eight of India’s last ten Test matches due to injuries, including three of their five Tests since he became the all-format captain.
Although he was Player of the Match in India’s last Test before this run of games, a victory that put India in a 2-1 series lead in England, their world-beating aura has faded a bit since then, with losses in Tests they could have won in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Birmingham, and a win in one they could have lost in Dhaka.
In contrast, Rohit has made a greater impact as a white-ball captain, with fantastic overall results. He has the best win-loss ratio of any India ODI captain with a minimum of ten games and is only second to Hardik Pandya (who has only captained in 11 matches) on the T20I list.
The semi-final appearance of India at the 2022 T20 World Cup a year after their group-stage exit in 2021 could be considered a significant achievement for both Rohit and Rahul Dravid, who took over as head coach after the 2021 tournament.
However, Dravid knows that tournament results define captains, and one bad tournament can negate all the good will earned from bilateral results, especially in white-ball cricket.
He himself could be remembered as the captain who transformed India into a world-class chasing team in ODIs, but more likely he is remembered for India’s group-stage exit at the 2007 World Cup.
Will INDIA Win Test Series Against Australia? How Would Rohit Sharma as Captain? – India Test Cricket Betting Tips Prediction and Live Review
Rohit became captain due to a sense that he would be a big-tournament captain, and India had been without big-tournament titles since 2013. At the time he took over the white-ball teams, he had just won his fifth IPL title as Mumbai Indians’ captain and there were three ICC trophies to be contested in the next two years. Tournament results, however, heavily depend on factors such as the quality of the team relative to the competition, the format, and luck.
When teams win, the complicated story of their success is often simplified, with the captain portrayed as a mastermind, but player testimonials, rather than analysis, back up this portrayal in the media, and no one ever asks if the same team with a different captain could have achieved the same success.
Now, just over a year into his captaincy, there are threats to Rohit’s leadership in every format. In T20Is, the threat is named Hardik Pandya, who has captained India in every T20I since the World Cup semi-final against England in November.
Rohit has not played a T20I since, mostly due to India’s preparation for the ODI World Cup, but it is not impossible that one or more of the young top-order players who are now getting a chance could make it difficult to leave them out when T20Is become a priority again.
The future of Rohit’s ODI captaincy, on the other hand, depends on whether India can translate their status as favorites for the home World Cup into actually winning it, which is a considerable amount of pressure.
In Test cricket, India will play in one of the highest-profile contests with Rohit as captain, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia. The 2016-17 Border-Gavaskar Trophy was perhaps the greatest Test series India has hosted this millennium, with Australia making India reach deep into their reserves of skill and stamina to complete a 2-1 comeback win.
This is the biggest and toughest Test for India.
