BGT 2024-25: Aussie players have picked Shubman Gill and Jaiswal as the future of Indian cricket ft. Travis Head
BGT 2024-25: Australian legendary players like Steven Smith and Travis Head and others went on to pick India's next future star among Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill.
India and Australia will take on each other in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which will start at the end of November, as India travels to Australia for the 5-match long red ball series. The series has been anticipated for a long time now, and even the players from both sides have made bold claims regarding it.
Also, several legends, like Sunil Gavaskar and Ricky Ponting, have had their say on the upcoming tour. Ponting was the first to claim that the Aussies would seal the series with a 3-1 advantage over India.
To this claim, Gavaskar came back strongly, as he reminded them how India had won the last four Border-Gavaskar Trophies, of which the last two were on the Australian islands; hence, he mocked Ponting?s home advantage remark.
However, the likes of Sourav Ganguly, Matthew Hayden, and Adam Gilchrist said how thrilling this contest between the two giants of the game can be and how crucial it is from both teams? points of view.

Now, in a recent interview, Travis Head went on to praise Indian superstar batter Shubman Gill on his dominance as a young batter and his immense impact on the game. For all, it is a known fact that Head is an Australian multi-format player who has resolved to find form across all formats.
"Shubman Gill is a superstar. He's played some ridiculous innings; he's got a great game against Spin. He's a class batter." Said Head to the Star Sports while complimenting the excellence of Gill.
In the same podcast interview with many players, many of the Australian greats went on to claim Jaiswal as India?s next-best superstar and the future of Indian cricket.
Players like Steven Smith, the veteran among Fab4, Josh Hazelwood, Nathan Lyon, Alex Carey, and Mitchell Starc went on to pick the 22-year-old explosive left-handed batter Yashasvi Jaiswal as India?s best future prospect, and it seems rightly so to the form he has been in.
