The Times of India reports that Team India will travel to Australia in two groups, with departures scheduled for November 10 and 11. Logistical constraints made it impossible to arrange a single commercial flight for the full squad. While these dates are tentative, an official announcement on Team India's departure is still awaited.

Heading to Australia early is expected to benefit India, giving players valuable time to train and acclimate to local conditions. Recently, India faced a tough home series against New Zealand, resulting in a 0-3 whitewash, which raises the pressure as they approach IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

The upcoming five-match Test series between India and Australia is set to be a tough contest. It will be interesting to see how Team India will step up and compete against Australia in this high-stakes showdown.
