India's resolute display in the third Test at the SCG ensured that the visitors kept the series level at 1-1. With the Indian team grappling with several injuries, they now have a mammoth task in front of them to defeat Australia at the Gabba, a venue where they haven't lost since 1988. India will need to pull off something spectacular to secure a win in Brisbane. It is unsure whether India would play R Ashwin, which makes Washington Sundar a favourite to replace him as a like-to-like match. With Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja and Hanuma Vihari ruled out, India might be tempted to play Kuldeep Yadav and create yet another debutant on the tour between Shardul Thakur and T Natarajan.

On the other hand, after losing the second Test in Melbourne, Australia made a strong comeback in the third Test to put India under serious pressure. The hosts will look to capitalize on their stunning record at the Gabba and beat India to lay their hands on the Border-Gavaskar trophy. With Will Pucovski out, Australia declared that Marcus Harris will return to open with David Warner, as the rest of the team remains unchanged.
