Ponting Predicts Australia Win in Border-Gavaskar Series

Former Australian cricket captain Ricky Ponting has predicted that Australia will win the upcoming five-match Border-Gavaskar Test series against India with a 3-1 margin. Despite India winning the last four Border-Gavaskar series overall, Ponting believes the hosts have a point to prove and will come out on top. This series, starting on November 22, marks the first time the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will feature five Tests. Ponting suggested that Australia's team lineup will mostly remain unchanged, except for potential changes concerning Steven Smith's position as an opener. The rivalry between the two cricketing giants has been intense, and Australia recently claimed victory over India in the ICC World Test Championship final.
