Having put up a decent performance in the first game, RCB will be strengthened further when the immensely talented Devdutt Padikkal makes the team after his recovery from COVID-19.

Warner-led side had won five out of their last six games to qualify for the playoffs in the 13th edition of the tournament and the team will be looking to carry forward the momentum in this year's IPL.

The Hyderabad-based side's skipper will be in quarantine for the next seven days in his hotel room as per BCCI's SOPs for IPL 2021.

The 34-year-old had sustained the injury during the second ODI against India in November and was subsequently ruled out of the third game in Canberra

This is the third time he is winning the prestigious medal. He was pipped by David Warner by one vote last year.

"I know we lost the series but we have one very happy girl here!! Thanks @virat.kohli for your playing jersey, Indi absolutely loves it. Besides daddy and @aaronfinch5 she loves VK #fan #love #cricket," said Warner

Warner has been handpicking cherished films and replacing the face of the actors with his own, and this time it is Bollywood superstar Ayushmann Khurrana's song 'Dard Karara' from his 2015 movie 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha'.

Following that incident, Cricket Australia had launched an investigation and the International Cricket Council (ICC) had also asked the Australian cricket board to submit its report.

The ongoing test match in Sydney between India and Australia saw one such incident when Indian players Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj were abused by some of the Australian supporters.

"We could see the indications that David Warner is not fully fit. When he was trying to take a quick single, his facial expressions were telling that he is still in pain. But he showed intent, tried to rotate the strike,” said Zaheer Khan.

Both Warner and Pucovski have joined the Australian Test squad and have attended nets with Warner making clear that he would play the third Test even if he isn't 100 per cent fit

"Am I going to be a 100 per cent? It is highly doubtful. But I will be doing everything I can to be able to get on that park and play and even if I am not a 100 per cent I will let the selectors give me that green light," Warner said.

Fast bowler Sean Abbott has also recovered from a calf strain and was included in the 18-man squad for the remainder of the four-Test series

Warner had missed the last ODI, three T20Is and the first two Tests against India due to the injury that he sustained during the second one-dayer

Warner has not yet fully recovered from a groin injury he sustained during the ODI series against India, while Abbott has recovered from the calf strain he sustained during Australia A's warm-up game against India.

"All-rounder Moises Henriques has been added to Australia's squad for the first Vodafone Test against India after the hosts' camp continues to be hit with injury," a report said.
