The World's top 2 Test teams will challenge each
other in Nagpur, Delhi, Dharmashala and Ahmedabad for the test matches. Mumbai,
Vishakapatnam and Chennai will host the three ODIs in March. While Rohit Sharma
will guide the side, KL Rahul returns to the squad as his deputy. Virat Kohli
has a magnificent record against the Kangaroo cricket team and will be crucial
in this series as well. Virat's back to form in ODI and T20s will boost his
morale and is sure to allure his fans. Indian star pacer Jasprit Bumrah is
still not recovered from his injury. Shreyas Iyer, who missed the ODI series
against New Zealand due to a back injury is yet to get better. Rishabh Pant,
the star performer in the last edition has met with an accident and takes many
months to fully get back to normal. After 12 years, Jayadev Unadkat gets the
call to bowl alongside Shami, Siraj and Umesh. KS Bharat and Ishan Kishan are
on the side to keep the wickets. Ravindra Jadeja's place depends on proving his
fitness.
