The forgettable year we all have come to know as 2020 might be nearing its much-awaited end, but it still has something in store for cricket fans that is bound to take their minds away from all the disappointments in the recent months. Two of the cricket heavyweights, India and Australia, are set to lock horns in the big-ticket tour we all have been waiting for.

The two teams will kickstart the proceedings with the One-Day International series with the 1st ODI scheduled for 27th November at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG). Though India is ranked second as compared to Australia who're placed fourth in the ODI rankings, Virat Kohli's men will be wary of the challenge the hosts present playing in their own backyard.

With the 32-man squad arriving in Australia earlier this month, Team India, while undergoing mandatory quarantine, is trying to make sure the players are at their prolific best when they take the field against the Aussies. From rigorous fitness training to specialised net sessions, here's a look at how the Indian cricket team is preparing themselves for the Oz challenge:
