IND vs AUS: As Australia arrive on Indian soil for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the home team would eye a dominating win in the series to make it to the WTC Finals. Team India currently holds the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with their historic series win in Australia in 2020-21.

With Indian pitches traditionally being batter friendly, the bowlers will have a huge part to play in the series. India's ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah and left-arm all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja are set to return after a long time out due to injury and would look to make an excellent comeback in the series.
