India captain Virat Kohli will miss three of the four Tests on this winter's tour of Australia to be at the birth of his first child.
The 32-year-old, one of the world's leading batsmen, will return home after the first Test starting on 17 December.
His wife, actress Anushka Sharma, is due to give birth in January.
Anyone arriving in Australia must quarantine for 14 days, making it impractical for Kohli to rejoin the squad.
Meanwhile, India faces Australia in a One Day International on the 27th of this month.
