#4 Players maintaining fitness throughout the series
India suffered a major blow ahead of the first Test as Prithvi Shaw was ruled out due to the ankle injury he sustained in the warm-up match. Shaw had a sensational debut series against West Indies and was expected to extend his purple patch in Australia too.
Shaw's injury has put Team India in a fix and has re-emphasized the importance of fitness, especially in overseas tours. Indian players will have to maintain high standards of fitness in order to give themselves the best chance of winning in Australia.
Moreover, Indian pacers are the team's biggest strength at the moment. But unfortunately, they have also been susceptible to injuries of late. It will be extremely crucial for Indian players to maintain their fitness throughout the series as India can ill-afford an injury in such a critical series.
