Significant interest was also shown in Brisbane, as many supporters expressed their eagerness to return to the Gabba, the site of India’s epic historic victory in the 2020–21 series. Brisbane’s robust sales figures attest to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy’s enduring appeal and spirit of competition.
The tremendous response confirms the excitement and anticipation around this series and promises an electric environment in every site.
