The touring Australian teams will present a difficult test to both India A and Under-19 teams. The Australian team brings multiple skilled athletes which makes their performance challenging to handle. The India A series against Australia will begin in late September and end on October 11. The teams will first play two multi-day matches in Puducherry before moving to ODIs at the same venue.
