BGT 2024-25: Australia-India Rivalry Not Far Behind Aus-England, Feels Ponting
ICC Review Show: Former skipper Ricky Ponting compared the rivalry between Australia and India to that of the Ashes, stating that these two series are the battles in world cricket that everyone looks forward to seeing.
The Ashes has been around for 142 years, with 345 Tests played under it. Australia have won 142 matches as compared to England's 110. On the other hand, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy was constituted in 1996/97, with India winning 24 matches and Australia emerging victorious on 20 occasions.
“Australia-England, with the history of the Ashes, but Australia-India is not far behind that and it's built up over a long period of time. I think we all look forward to these sorts of battles. As a past player, as a commentator, I want to see these two teams go out there and play hard and fair and then see who is left standing at the end of the next five games,” said Ponting on the ICC Review Show.
