The Indian cricket team's problems with injuries have continued to mount.

Premier pacer Ishant Sharma was ruled out of the four-match Test series. The right-arm pacer had earlier suffered a side strain injury during the IPL 2020 season. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma was ruled out for the first two Tests while undergoing rehabilitation at the NCA. The senior batsman landed in Australia ahead of the second Test but had to undergo mandatory quarantine of 14 days.

Shami

On December 19, pacer Mohammed Shami was ruled out for the remainder of the series. He suffered a fracture on his arm and was in a lot of pain. While batting on Day 3 of the D/N Test, he was hit on the right arm of a bouncer by Pat Cummins. Shami retired hurt as India recorded their worst batting performance (36/9d).
