The third Test between India and Australia is just around the corner and the excitement of the fans is reaching a new level.

After claiming a victory in the first two Tests, the Rohit Sharma-led side will take on Australia from Wednesday at the Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore.

Team India dominated the visitors in both the games as all-rounders Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja created a havoc and broke the backbone of Australia's batting-line up, with their brilliant spin.

On the eve of the third Test, Team India hit the practice ground to sweat it out in the nets. BCCI took to Twitter and posted a series of pictures, where skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and others were seen practicing in the nets.

Star India batter Virat Kohli hit his first Test century in over three years on Day 4 of the fourth Test against Australia. Kohli had a tough 2021 and 2022, failing to reach three figures in over 1,200 days. However, since scoring his first T20I century during the Asia Cup last year, Kohli hasn't looked back. The 34-year-old finished the T20 World Cup in Australia last year as the leading run-scorer and then hit three ODI centuries including two -- 113 and 166 not out -- against Sri Lanka in January, earlier this year.
