Template:Use Australian English Template:Infobox cricket tour The Australia cricket team toured India in September and October 2017 to play five One Day Internationals (ODIs) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1][2][3][4] The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed the full dates in September 2017.[5][6] Ahead of the ODIs, Australia played a 50-over warm-up match against India's Board President XI, with Australia winning by 103 runs.[7] India won the ODI series 4–1 and returned to the top of the ICC ODI Championship.[8] In accordance with the International Cricket Council's (ICC) new playing conditions, the Umpire Decision Review System (DRS) was used for the first time in a T20I match in this series.[9] The T20I series was drawn 1–1, with the third match called off due to a wet outfield.[10]

Shikhar Dhawan was not available for the first three ODIs, as he took leave to attend to his wife, who was unwell.[18] After the third ODI, he was not named in India's squad for the final two ODI matches, with no replacement named.[19] Ravindra Jadeja was added to India's ODI squad for the first three matches, as a replacement for Axar Patel who injured his ankle.[20] Patel was included for the last two ODIs, replacing Jadeja.[21]

Ahead of the T20I series, Australia rested Pat Cummins, due to his increased workload schedule.[22] Andrew Tye was named as his replacement.[23] While fielding during the fifth ODI, Steve Smith picked up a shoulder injury, and was sidelined for the T20I series, with Marcus Stoinis being called up as a replacement, and David Warner given the captaincy.[24]
