At the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024–25 will be decided by the final match. Australia will try to win or draw, while the Indians must win to keep the trophy. The Australian bowlers’ outstanding performance on Day 5 was the reason they won the Boxing Day Test, but the hitters’ efforts are also important.
The Australian middle-order batsman has been the series’ top run scorer since the beginning, although Steven Smith and Marnus Labuschagne have both returned to play well. Even though a few batters have yet to meet
The expectations in the series, it appears that batsman-wicketkeeper Alex Carey is happy with the performances.
He gave an insight into the team’s overall mood.
The majority of the runs in the series have been scored by Travis, followed by Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne. It hasn’t altered much from a really bad fixture, and we’re quite level. We realise that wasn’t how we wanted to play, but I believe the key has been to remain level and recognise that we’re a strong team,” Carey stated at a news conference prior to the game.
“Not much has changed in terms of mood. Our group is proud. Although we wanted to recover from Perth, I don’t believe that much needed to change. “The entire series has been really level, relying on players to deliver when it’s their turn,” Carey continued.
If they win or tie the Sydney match, which starts on Friday, January 3, the Australians will essentially guarantee their spot in the WTC Final in June. To keep the title, however, India will need to win the match and hope the Sri Lankans are on their side.
