As per the reports of heraldsun.com.au, opener Dhawan and middle-order batsman Cheteshwar Pujara are expected to be dropped for the fourth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG).
Chances are hight that Indian will with a new-look batting order that promotes Rohit Sharma to number three and sends Lokesh Rahul out to open with Murali Vijay.
But the talking point is Dhawan, who was also criticised for not going out to bat in the second Test's fourth morning, leaving Kohli exposed to the field of play without much preparation.
Dhawan was hit on hand in the batting practice before play, and made a last-minute decision not to resume his innings. Kohli departed cheaply and reportedly fired up at Dhawan when he returned to the sheds.
The left-hander then went out to bat and made 81 which indicated his injury was not that serious.
Departed captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni had also admitted at the time that there was unrest in the Indian dressing room.
