February 22, 2017 6:48 PM | Skymet Weather Team

It is that time of the year again, when the true Titans clash. It is the test between the best, and Virat Kohli and company are surely excited about this one. Team India in the year 2016 during the month October was crowned as the best in the world but the true test is a series against one of the best teams in the world, the Australian side.

However, Kohli and his boys are all prepped up to face the Aussie men in style. The three test series between India and Australia is all set to begin tomorrow and we couldn’t have been more excited. Australia is touring India for a four test series which is scheduled between February 23 and March 29.

The four test match series will be held in Pune, Bengaluru, Ranchi and Dharamsala.  The best part about the series is that the Australian side which is led by Steven Smith who is also the newly appointed captain of the Rising Pune Supergiants have not won a test in the Indian sub-continent since the year 2011.

On the other hand, the Indian side holds a record of 20 undefeated home test matches which means the Aussies will be having a tough time in trying to defeat the Indian side.

The first match in Pune is scheduled to begin at 9:30 am and weather conditions will remain dry. Humidity levels will be on the lower side which will keep the conditions comfortable throughout the five day event. However, due to above normal temperatures, the players will feel the warmth during the peak afternoon hours.
