Rahul&#8217;s fitness is the key for the tourists as they set to register a hat-trick of Test series wins against Australia down under.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the unversed, Rahul was hit on his right elbow by a delivery that rose more than\u00a0he expected. He received immediate treatment on the ground before trudging off the field as a precautionary measure. He didn&#8217;t turn up to bat on Saturday and therefore there were several reports of him missing the Test series opener at the Optus Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Rahul has emerged as the prime candidate to open the innings in Perth alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal should skipper <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" rel=\"noopener\">Rohit Sharma<\/a> be unavailable for selection. Rohit has not travelled to Australia yet and is still with his family after the birth of his second child on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Since Rahul has previously opened for India in Australia, the team management is likely to put the onus on his shoulders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Australia&#8217;s squad for the 1st Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/pat-cummins\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pat Cummins<\/a>\u00a0(c), Scott Boland,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/alex-carey\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alex Carey<\/a>, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/usman-khawaja\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Usman Khawaja<\/a>, Marnus Labuschagne,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/nathan-lyon\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nathan Lyon<\/a>, Mitch Marsh, Nathan McSweeney,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/steve-smith\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Steve Smith<\/a>, Mitchell Starc    <\/p>\n<p><strong>India\u2019s squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rohit Sharma<\/a>\u00a0(C),\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/jasprit-bumrah\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jasprit Bumrah<\/a>\u00a0(VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Abhimanyu Easwaran,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/shubman-gill\" style=\"text-decoration-line: none; padding: 0px; background: 0px center; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(17, 122, 179);\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shubman Gill<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/virat-kohli\" rel=\"noopener\">Virat Kohli<\/a>, KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant (WK), Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel (WK), R Ashwin, R Jadeja, Mohd.
