Two young Indians have received support to go to Australia and represent their country in the same capacity that Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar did for years.

After a lengthy 43-day break, India's much-anticipated home season will begin in 17 days when the Men in Blue play Bangladesh in a two-Test series at home. This will serve as a warm-up to the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy, a five-Test series in Australia that begins on November 22 and is predicted to smash all records. Australia will be motivated to exact revenge for those losses and return the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to the country after an eight-year absence, while India, encouraged by the historic victories of the previous two series Down Under, would be keen to win three straight.

India and Australia have played in some high-profile matches in the past year, including the World Test Championship final, the ODI World Cup, and the T20 World Cup semi-final. As such, there is nothing like pitting these two dominant cricket teams against each other in a full-fledged Test series in one of the world's most difficult conditions. India is already making preparations for a demanding season that will begin with the Duleep Trophy on September 5, where players like Sarfaraz Khan, Shubman Gill, and Shreyas Iyer will likely make an immediate impact.
