After a dominating performance in the first two Tests where India annihilated Australia to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Rohit Sharma's side is in full flow and will be looking for the whitewash this time around.
More than that, they will be aiming to win the next game to ensure that they seal their spot for the World Test Championship final which will take place in June.
For that reason, the home side will be prepping up for the next two Tests for which the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced a 17-member unchanged squad.
All the players from the first two games retain their place including left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat who was released ahead of the second match to participate in the Ranji Trophy finals which his side Saurashtra won by beating Bengal.
The third match of the series, as previously informed has been moved from Dharamsala to Indore which will be played from 1st to 5th March whereas the fourth & final game of the BGT will be seen being played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad from 9th to 13th March.
"The All-India Senior Selection Committee has picked squads for the ongoing Mastercard Australia Tour of India for the third and fourth Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy."
