Meanwhile, Team India head coach recently opined that if Rohit Sharma doesn't arrive in Australia within a week, his participation in the Test series will be under the clouds. "He (Rohit) is going through some tests at the NCA, and they're obviously going to decide [for] how long he needs to take a break," Shastri said while speaking to ABC Sport.

"But things could get difficult if he's asked to wait for too long, [because] then you're talking of the quarantine again, which might make it really tough for even him to come just in time for the Test series," he added.

Meanwhile, the upcoming fixture is India's first assignment after the coronavirus-induced break. The tour full-fledged tour comprises of three ODIs, as many T20Is and four Test matches, starting from November 27. Although Virat Kohli's men have pleasant memories from their last visit down under, they will indeed face a difficult challenge this time around with Steve Smith and David Warner's participation.
