The last time the two countries played a bilateral series was over a decade ago and Pakistani players were pulled out of the prestigious T20 Indian Premier League.
Australia are looking to win their first Test series in India in almost a decade. The Tests will be played in Nagpur, Delhi, Dharamshala and then in Ahmedabad at the world’s largest cricket stadium.
After being out of the Test team for almost two years, Khawaja made a stunning comeback against England in the 2021-2022 Ashes.

Khawaja was awarded the Shane Warne Men’s Test Player of the Year award for scoring 1,020 runs at an average of 78.46.
