India vs Australia: Mitchell Starc to rejoin hosts' squad following compassionate leave, expected to play pink-ball Test

Sydney: Australia fast bowler Mitchell Starc is back in contention for the opening day-night Test against India this week after on Sunday opting to rejoin the team following compassionate leave. Starc, the most prolific wicket-taker in the short history of pink-ball Test cricket with 42, missed the final two games of the Twenty20 series after an unspecified family illness. But he will rejoin the team in Adelaide on Monday, giving him just two full days to prepare.
