Having pulled off an unexpected draw in the third Test of the series at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on Monday, Team India will not be in the mood of leaving any stone unturned to prepare for the decider at The Gabba which gets underway from Friday. SCG Test hero Rishabh Pant shared a picture with his Indian teammates after a gym session including Rohit Sharma, Prithvi Shaw, and some members of the support staff.
The group can be seen flaunting their pumped-up biceps. Taking to Instagram, Pant captioned the post, “It’s about brotherhood, Putting in the work — all day, every day.”

India’s injury problems have compounded with each passing day and the latest in the list is pace spearhead Bumrah, who has an abdominal strain. The Indian attack has already lost the services of Mohammed Shami — broken hand — and Umesh Yadav — calf injury — during the course of the ongoing series and with the series level at 1-1, the team knows the importance of the final Test which gets underway on January 15.
