The trophy is named after two of both countries’ greats. Sunil Gavaskar, one of India’s greatest players, and Allan Border, Australia’s fierce batsman and skipper. Australia will be attempting to reclaim the trophy for the first time since 2015, with India having won the previous three series between the two sides.
Who holds the record for the most Border-Gavaskar Trophies?
Since the Border-Gavaskar Trophy was introduced in 1996, India has won the most series between the two teams.
India has won nine of the 15 series since its inception, while Australia has won five, with the 2003/04 series ending in a tie.
India has won the last three series against Australia, including an unlikely victory in the summer of 2020/21 away from home.
