BCCI Vice-President Rajeev Shukla criticised Cricket Australia for excluding Sunil Gavaskar from the Border-Gavaskar Trophy presentation after the Sydney Test. This omission occurred despite the trophy bearing Gavaskar’s name. Social media and commentators also expressed disappointment, highlighting Gavaskar’s absence as a significant oversight. The series loss also ended India’s hopes of qualifying for the World Test Championship (WTC) final, with Australia securing their spot.
