Former India National Cricket Team captain and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) president, Sourav Ganguly, has predicted that Rohit Sharma & Co. will absolutely crush Australia National Cricket Team in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023.

It will be hard for Australia to beat India – Sourav Ganguly
Sourav Ganguly believes that India can beat the visitors 4-0 in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023. Sourav Ganguly said that winning the remaining games of the series will be very hard for Australia as Rohit Sharma & Co. are a far superior team on Indian soil.
