Australia’s performance in the 2024 Border-Gavaskar series is rapidly deteriorating. Josh Hazlewood, a star pacer who has been troubled by an Achilles injury since the New Year’s Test in Sydney, has now been ruled out of the entire series while captain Pat Cummins was forced to fly back home due to a family illness. Not only that, though. According to reports in Australian media, players like David Warner, Ashton Agar, and Matt Renshaw might also be returning home.
In order to attend to a serious family illness, Captain Pat Cummins will also be going back to Australia. He will arrive in time for the third test, which begins in Indore on March 1.
In the second test, opening batsman David Warner was struck by the ball while batting and sustained a concussion as well as a fractured arm. Warner will continue to play in the remaining tests with the team. After the medical staff and selectors have thought it over, any alterations to the squad will be revealed on Wednesday.

Apart from Josh Hazlewood Is Australia plagued with injuries?
Matt Renshaw and Ashton Agar might also be going back home. Spinner Todd Murphy reportedly has a sore side, which prevented him from contributing as much to the team’s goals in the New Delhi Test.
Additionally, Mitchell Starc and Cameron Green, two players who sat out the first two Tests against India, are anticipated to be added to the starting XI for the Indore Test, which begins on March 1.
India has a commanding 2-0 series lead after India defeated Australia in the first two games. The men of Pat Cummins are pressed up against a wall. Another setback would serve as the death knell.
