The Indian team had a gruelling nets session in Mohali as they prepared for Tuesday's opening game in the three-match T20I series against World Champions Australia.
Fresh from their disappointing showing in the Asia Cup, India will be keen to set the record straight against the Aussies and also get their combinations into place ahead of the next month's World Cup.
'TeamIndia had their first training session ahead of the #INDvAUS series at the IS Bindra Stadium, Mohali, yesterday', BCCI captioned the pictures of the session on Twitter.
