Cricket News Desk. There is suspense over the performance of Rohit Sharma in the first test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. Meanwhile, former cricketer Surendra Khanna has congratulated Rohit on becoming a father for the second time. But he asked the Indian Test captain to join the important Test series as soon as possible.

'The family is over, now back in the field'
Surendra Khanna told IANS, 'First of all I want to congratulate Rohit and his family on this happy occasion. Rohit now has a daughter and a son, which means his family is now complete and congratulations to him for this. Now Rohit should join the team soon. I remember when I got married I had to come back for a match on the day of my reception. It was 4 in the morning when I reached my room and my wife woke me up to go to the airport for the match. This type of commitment is what gives players a different identity.

Huge pressure on Team India
After facing a crushing defeat from New Zealand, Team India has now started preparing to face Australia. Team India's confidence may be low after the 0-3 clean sweep against the Kiwi team on home ground. This disappointing result has increased their chances for the crucial Australia series. The upcoming series is crucial for India's WTC final hopes after the defeat against New Zealand. India need to win at least four of the five Tests to strengthen their chances of qualifying for the WTC Final for the third consecutive time.

First test match from 22nd November
The first test will start from 22nd November in Perth. Adelaide will host the second Test starting on December 6. After this, the third Test will be played in Brisbane on 14 December. The Boxing Day Test will start in Melbourne from 26 December. The fifth and final Test will be played on 3 January 2025 in Sydney. This will be the first time that a five-match Test series will be played between Team India and Australia.
