The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President Sourav Ganguly said that the BCCI has approved the team India's tour of Australia. Now we have asked the Australia Cricket Board to reduce the quarantine period of the players. Hopefully, it will happen, because it will be very difficult to stay in a hotel room for two weeks.
The Indian team has to play the T20 World Cup in October-November after the 3-match T20 series in October on the tour of Australia. After this, team India will play 4 Test and 3 ODI series against Australia in December-January. At the same time, T20 World Cup may get postponed due to the Coronavirus.
"We have approved the tour," Ganguly told a news channel. Team India will leave for Australia in December. We hope the Quarantine period will be slightly reduced, as we do not want players to sit in the hotel room for two weeks. It is very much depressing and disappointing. Except Melbourne, conditions are fine in Australia and New Zealand, so we expect quarantine days to be reduced. "
He said, "It is going to be a very difficult series. It will not be like the series two years ago. This time Australia is very strong, while India is also a good team. We have a fantastic Batsman, Bowler. I had talked to Virat Kohli and said that your standards are high. When you go abroad, I see you playing on TV. I expect you to play well against Australia. I just hope you win. "
The last time a series of 4 Tests was played between India and Australia in late 2018. India then defeated Australia by 2–1. This was Team India's first Test series win in Australia. India has lost 8 out of 12 series and played 3 draws so far in Australia.
