India vs Australia, 5th Test Live Streaming: How to watch IND vs AUS on TV and online, Date and Time

The visitors continue to struggle with their batting in the ongoing series, with an average of just 22.40 runs in the first innings - their seventh lowest in a season where they have played at least five Tests. This has put India in the lead as they play catch-up. There is speculation that the Sydney Test could be Rohit's last in the format due to his lack of runs and unsuccessful on-field decisions. Despite the batting woes, Jasprit Bumrah has been a shining light for India, being the main saviour in the series. His exceptional bowling has caused chaos for the opposition, making him the standout performer in the ongoing matches.

For the Sydney Test, Mitchell Starc is expected to play although he is also dealing with fitness issues. Meanwhile, Beau Webster, who is an all-rounder, is set to make his debut and will also be Australia’s third debutant in the series after Nathan McSweeney and Sam Konstas. For India, Akash Deep has been ruled out due to a stiff back, which means we could see either Harshit Rana or Prasidh Krishna joined Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj in the pace battery. Dhruv Jurel is also expected to be included in the playing XI, possibly replacing Washington Sundar.

History also isn’t on India’s side as they look to draw the series. They have won only one out of 13 Tests at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Meanwhile, Steve Smith is nearing a milestone and is 38 short of 10,000 Test runs. He is expected to reach that mark in Sydney, and will join a list consisting of Allan Border, Steve Waugh and Ricky Ponting as the only Australians to do so.
