Border-Gavaskar Trophy: Ahead of the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT), Australian spin maestro Nathon Lyon has named the 'Big Three' wickets of batters who can change the momentum of the game. The BGT series will start in November at Australia's home turf. The first game of the series will begin on November 22 at Perth.

Who are the 'Big Three?'

Australian spinner has named Indian skipper Rohit Sharma, stalwart batter Virat Kohli, and explosive batter Rishabh Pant as the 'Big Three' wickets. He also stated that other batters are capable as well and the Indian team has an amazing line-up.

What has Nathon Lyon said?

Speaking to Star Sports, he said, "Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Rishabh Pant are probably going to be the three really big ones. But then you have still got Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Ravindra Jadeja, and who else will come out--another five, I am not sure.

He also praised the Indian batting line-up, saying, "It is a pretty amazing line-up they have got, so it is going to be a massive challenge."
