Rohit Sharma's Australia Arrival Uncertain, Shami to Play Domestic Cricket

The biggest rivalry between India and Australia is about to kick off on November 22 in Perth. The Indian team has reached Australia and has started preparing for the upcoming series. To qualify for the WTC final, India needs to win the series. For the last 10 years, Australia has failed to beat India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy; this time Australia will try their best to beat India in the series.

Talking to the Indian camp, a lot of updates are coming about the players. Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has recently announced the arrival of his newborn baby and had already said that he will not be available for the first match with the Indian team. It is now being said that Rohit Sharma will reach Australia before the first Test. But on what date? The confirmation about this is still uncertain.

The team management is not in the mood to hurry about Mohammed Shami and has been asked to play domestic cricket right now. He is also expected to be included in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. He has returned to the cricket field by playing for Bengal; he took 7 wickets against Madhya Pradesh.

Devdutt Padikkal can play for India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and was part of the India A squad. He had already made his debut in the Test match against England this year only and impressed everyone with his batting. He has been stopped in Australia from the INDIA A team. After the injury of Shubman Gill in the Indian team, Padikkal is being included in the team as a backup. Padikkal can be seen playing at number 3 for the Indian team in the first Test.
