Australian cricket team in India in 2022–23
The Australian cricket team toured India in September 2022 to play three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches as a preparatory series before 2022 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. They later returned in February and March 2023 to play four Test and three One Day International (ODI) matches. The Test matches formed part of the 2021–2023 ICC World Test Championship. Australia won the first T20I by 4 wickets, to lead the series 1–0. The second T20I was reduced to 8 overs per side due to a wet outfield, with India winning the match by 6 wickets. India won the third and final T20I by 6 wickets to win the series 2–1. India won the Test series 2–1,  and retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Australia's win in the third Test secured their place in the World Test Championship final. Results in other matches confirmed that India also qualified for the Championship final after the drawn fourth Test. India won the first ODI by 5 wickets, to lead the series 1–0. But Australia won the second ODI by 10 wickets, to level the series 1–1. Australia won the third ODI by 21 runs and won the series 2–1. Scheduling
In August 2022, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed the schedule for the T20Is. In 8 December 2022, the BCCI confirmed the schedule for the Tests and the ODIs. On 13 February 2023, BCCI confirmed the venue of third test was shifted from Dharamshala to Indore. The ground was rated "poor" by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and received three demerit points. However on 27 March 2023, ICC changed the rating to "below average", and the ground received one demerit point, after an appeal by the BCCI. Squads

With the pitch seeming likely to favour spinners, India played three spinners, while Australia played two, giving Murphy his debut. Australia also dropped Head, in a decision which was widely criticised in Australia, replacing him with Handscomb. So the Indian team was Sharma, Rahul, Pujara, Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav (batters), Bharat (wicket-keeper), Ashwin, Jadeja, Patel (spin bowlers), Shami and Siraj (fast bowlers); and the Australian team was Kuwaja, Warner, Labuschagne, Smith, Handscomb, Renshaw (batters), Carey (wicket-keeper), Lyon, Murphy (spin bowlers), Cummins and Boland (fast bowlers). Despite a modest first-innings total of 177, Australia's position looked reasonable when India were 168 for 5, despite Sharma going on to make 120. But Jadeja (70) and Patel (84) gave India a large lead. The Australia were then bowled out in their second innings for 91, appearing to have no answer to India's spinners, who took 16 wickets between them for the match. 2nd Test
