Which series is bigger: The Ashes or the Border-Gavaskar trophy?

[jnaveen1980]

It's going to be, it obvious. Indians have a Hugh population compared to England where cricket isn't even a main sport.

Pakistan/Bangladesh have more population as well compared to England.


Boxing day test 2023/24 Pakistan vs 2024/25 India. India broke the record 6 day attendance from 1937.

embarrassing stuff for the indians and sunil gavaskar nobody have 2 hoots about the actual sunil gavaskar and nor do they do about the actual series they just look at it as competitive cricket

Sunil Gavaskar 'perplexed' by snub after Australia claim series win

Bizarrely, Gavaskar, whose name is even on the trophy, was not involved in the presentation on Sunday afternoon at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

Numbers and australian players view tell us different story compared to Pakistan fan's view.

Australian players will support BCCI due to money and personal financial gain. And numbers will be higher due to Indian count.

Those numbers don't prove anything.

Cricket over here in Australia is on pay TV on Foxtel (which is ad free) and on free to air TV (which has ad breaks). All those numbers are telling is it's a record for Foxtel the pay TV company which only started showing Australian summer cricket season back in 2018.

And numbers will be higher due to Indian count.

With the amount of Indian migrants residing in each of the cities here, you'd expect just about every Indian game played here to basically feel like it's their home game.

The ideal series for competitiveness is probably the Ashes in England. Most of these series going all the way back to 1997 have been crackers.

English conditions for playing cricket typically are quite equalising. In England, Australia have won 52 Ashes Tests, England have won 54 Ashes Tests, and there were 67 Draws.

That’s about as perfect a competitive split of results as you’ll find for any rivalry in any sport.

Yeah fr, they dont realise that Australia isnt filled with Australians only.

700,000 Indians, 100,000 Pakistani, 1.3M Chinese, 2.4 M irish, infact

Their are only 29% Australians in Australia out of 26M. The rest are all multi cultural.

In comparison over 95% of Indians in India are indian.

Furthermore cricket is a high class sport in india, infact its their only sport while cricket isnt Australia's priority.

Its why the records keep getting broken because Indians cant stop procreating and migrating.

Very true, mate.

Tbh, I don't take anything that particular poster says seriously. He started writing love letters to Cummins over something he made up in his own head.

Wait till he finds out Cummins has recently said that Ashes is bigger than BGT.
