The Chetan Sharma-led Indian selection committee will pick its first squad on Tuesday (January 19) over a zoom call where all selectors and Virat Kohli will be present. The focus will be on Jasprit Bumrah and R Ashwin and how to manage their workload after the duo sat out of Brisbane with injuries.

Former Australian skipper Ricky Ponting is hopeful that India's resilience in the series will give in sometime and wants tomorrow, Day 5 of Gabba, to be that day. He also added that a drawn series here will be even worse than the series loss in the 2018/19 tour when India defeated Australia 2-1.

Mohammed Siraj, who was bereaved during the Australian trip, has had a crazy series so far and dedicated the success and the wrap-up fifer to his father who has had a huge role in his career. Siraj has further stated that he is confident of playing a lot of Test matches for India in the future.
