The Australian national cricket team played three Test matches in India against the India national cricket team in 1964–65. The three-Test series was drawn, with the Australians taking the first Test, the Indians winning the second, and the third match drawn.
The Australian touring party came to India after their tour of England. They arrived in Madras, the venue of the First Test, on 30 September 1964.[3] Their team for the Test was named the next day. Only one change was made from the team that drew the final Test against England at The Oval a few weeks prior — paceman Grahame Corling was replaced by left-arm spin bowler Johnny Martin.[2] Tom Veivers and Bob Simpson were other players who could bowl spin in their squad.[4]
The India team for the First Test was named on 29 September 1964. Rusi Surti was named the twelfth man, and Abbas Ali Baig, Farokh Engineer, B. S. Chandrasekhar and Venkataraman Subramanya, the reserves. Indrajitsinhji was included as the only uncapped player in the squad.[1] The squad had only one medium-fast bowler in Vasant Ranjane.[5]
