After visiting Australia for a long tour and defeating them in Tests and ODI series, India is set to host the Aussies on their home soil. The Australia team will tour India for 2 T20Is and 5 ODI matches starting from February 24, 2019. Although Australia suffered heartbreaking losses against India at their home soil, but two victories in recent Test matches against Sri Lanka would have definitely brought some confidence in players.

Moreover, Australian star bowler Mitchell Starc will be missing the clashes against India due to injury.
