If training is anything to go by, KL Rahul could very well bat in the middle order during the IND vs AUS 1st test. Shreyas Iyer is ruled out as he continues to recuperate at the NCA. Ravindra Jadeja and KS Bharat also had a good net session, with a possible hint of Jadeja being promoted up the order.
While it is early to ascertain any combinations, it looks like Rohit and Rahul Dravid have their plans set for the opposition. India have four more days of training before the 1st test in Nagpur. There are two more sessions at the old VCA Ground in Nagpur. India will then move to the Stadium in Jamtha, where the series opener will be played.
