In this paper, we solve Brans–Dicke (BD) theory (Phys. Rev. D, 24, 925) field equations for anisotropic Bianchi type VI0 space–time and discuss evolution of the expanding Universe. Here, we consider pressureless fluid and isotropic generalized ghost pilgrim dark energy as the source of matter and dark energy, respectively. To get the determinate solution of the field equations we have used (i) scalar expansion proportional to the shear scalar and (ii) scalar field (in BD theory) proportional to average scale factor of the model. Some physical and geometrical properties of the model are also discussed.
