India's tour of Australia 2018-19 kicked off with the T20I series, which ended in a 1-1 draw. India will start clear favourites in this Test series and here is why this could be the best chance for Virat Kohli and Co. to win a Test series in Australia:

1

The absence of senior pros

The absence of Steve Smith and David Warner has somewhat jolted the confidence of the Australian side in recent times. Both of the batsmen have played key roles for the hosts in the past, and their experience is something Australia will miss the most.

2

India's pace brigade in great form

India has Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Bhuvaneshwer Kumar and Umesh Yadav. The fact that India's pace bowlers have started to dominate in overseas conditions has been a delight for everyone to watch. According to a Cricbuzz report, the Indian pacers have together picked up 132 wickets this year, most taken by them ever.
