Australian all rounder Cameron Green believes that not only will the Border Gavaskar Trophy be a series of its own but they also have an eye on a potential World Test Championship final against India. 

"Every single point is pretty crucial for the World Test Championship. Any way you can kind of (or) get an idea of (to) how to get one up on your opponent, we'll try and take,” Green said.

Green further added that they are trying to get as much information out of India ahead of the Border Gavaskar Trophy. 

"If it is a bit of a preview for a World Test Championship final again, yeah, we’ve been trying to get as much information out of India and see how we can win it again," he added.

All-rounder Cameron Green reckoned the five-Test series between India and Australia starting on November 22 at Perth could be a "preview" for the final of the World Test Championship next year.

India lead the WTC table for 2023-25 cycle with 68.52 percentage points and 74 points, followed by Australia with 62.50 percentage points and 90 points.

The WTC final will be played at Lord’s from June 11-15 next year and could feature both the current top two teams once again.
