India dropped fast bowler Umesh Yadav and openers K.L. Rahul and Murali Vijay. Offspinner Ravichandran Ashwin was ruled out for the second successive match because of an abdominal strain. Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja comes into the side after missing the first two tests. Batsman Rohit Sharma has been recalled and opener Mayank Agarwal is set to make his debut. Australia has recalled pace-bowling allrounder Mitch Marsh to replace the struggling Peter Handscomb in the middle order. The four-test series is tied 1-1 after Australia’s win in the second test in Perth.
