After losing 4-1 in England, the Indians head to Australia looking to re-impose their status as the No.1 ranked Test side in the world. The last time these two teams contested the Border-Gavaskar Trophy back in 2017, India won the four-match series 2-1 with victory by eight wickets in the final Test.

Meanwhile, Australia will look to make amends to what has so far been their annus horribilis after the furore surrounding the ball-tampering scandal in South Africa.
