AUS vs IND 1st Test Preview

Both teams are vying for qualification to the WTC final. Australia has seven matches remaining in this WTC cycle. They need to win five of these seven matches to ensure a berth in the summit clash. On the other hand, India needs to win by a margin of 4-0 to ensure their place in the final of the WTC.

While Australia will be confident about playing on its home turf and the ample rest it has given its key player, India will be looking to bounce back strong from its recent debacle against New Zealand at home.
