The Test players not taking part in the one-day international series are Michael Slater, Justin Langer, Colin Miller, Michael Kasprowicz and Matthew Hayden.

All-rounder Ian Harvey's place on the tour is subject to a fitness test. This test will take place a few days before the team departs for India. Harvey fractured his right thumb on 3 March during the Bushrangers versus Tasmanian Tigers match in Hobart.

Head-to-head, Australia and India have played 62 matches, Australia winning 36, India winning 23, with three no results.
