Team India will switch focus to the limited-overs formats after the conclusion of a forgettable Border-Gavaskar Trophy series against Australia. Limited-overs series against England, and the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy will now be the focus for Rohit Sharm and Co.

The hyped Australia-India Test series was a commercial success but it was a bittersweet feeling for smaller cricket nations unable to regularly play the expensive format.

India's 3-1 defeat in Australia exposed the fragility of their top order, but equally unmissable was how much they rely on pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah, who gave it all until he broke down in the series finale in Sydney.

The 50-over World Cup is far older and has been competed for since back in 1975. Australia are the record winners having run out victorious on five occasions (1987, 1999, 2003, 2007 and 2015). England took the 2019 crown after a dramatic Ben Stokes-inspired super-over win over New Zealand at Lord's.

Tough decisions might need to be made for India's slumping Test cricket team in desperate need of a reboot after falling away in Australia.

Indian cricket fans and pundits heaped praise on stand-in skipper Jasprit Bumrah on Sunday, but questioned the future of several veteran players after their team lost 3-1 to Australia in a gripping five-Test series.
