“Australia in Australia is always tough. They will be a lot stronger with (Steve) Smith and (David) Warner back. Players like (Marnus) Labuschagne have become better,” Ganguly said in an interview.

They have made special arrangements in order to get going with this highly anticipated series. For them, this is one of the opportunities to recover all the losses they suffered earlier this year.

India will start their tour with the ODI series and the tournament opener will be played on November 27 followed by the games on 29 November and 2nd December. After that, the Men in Blue will play 3 T20Is and 4 Tests.
