On Wednesday, coach Ravi Shastri, who was keeping a tab on the proceedings, addressed the team huddle. The likes of Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, skipper Ajinkya Rahane and others were seen in their training kits.

"After an epic fightback in Sydney, it is time to regroup. We have begun our preparations for the final Test at the Gabba! #TeamIndia #AUSvIND," BCCI captioned the photos.

Chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav was seen bowling at the nets and there is a chance that he could be picked for the match.

Jasprit Bumrah, who has been ruled out of the last Test with an abdominal strain, was with the team.  Bumrah was seen having discussion with Shardul Thakur and bowling coach Arun.

Jadeja underwent a surgery for his broken thumb, while Vihari injured his hamstring.
