Starting in Perth on November 22, IND vs AUS Test series promises intense competition. For India to secure a spot in World Test Championship final, veteran opener Rohit Sharma faces a challenging task: leading the team to a 4-0 win in Australia. While this is a tall order, results from other series could still simplify India's path to WTC final.

As IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Test series approaches, several senior players might be participating in their final showdown in this prestigious tournament. Here are four players who could possibly be playing their last Border-Gavaskar Trophy in 2024:

Ravichandran Ashwin: Ravichandran Ashwin is likely heading into his final Border-Gavaskar Trophy. At 38, the veteran spinner remains a key figure for India in Tests, but Washington Sundar is being groomed to take over his role as a batter-spinner. Ashwin will undoubtedly aim to deliver a memorable performance in IND vs AUS Test series 2024-25.

Steve Smith: Australia's Test specialist, Steve Smith, at 35, is approaching the end of his career. Known for his exceptional performances against India, he has consistently delivered under pressure. Likely playing his last Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Smith will aim to make a strong impact, especially batting at his preferred number 4 position. 

Rohit Sharma: IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Test series may be Rohit Sharma's last, as he will be 39 by the time of the next tour in 2027. After recent challenges in Tests against New Zealand and Bangladesh, Rohit is determined to leave a strong impression—both as captain and with the bat. Leading India against Australia, he'll look to close his Border-Gavaskar journey with a bang.

Ravindra Jadeja: At 35, Ravindra Jadeja has retired from T20Is, and his future in Tests is uncertain. Although he's currently in top form, it's unclear if the all-rounder will still be part of India's Test plans by the time Australia tours India again in 2027.
