The Australian cricket team toured India in February and March 2017 playing four Test matches. India won the series 2–1. With the series victory, India held all the series titles against all of the other Test sides at the same time. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed the dates of the tour in October 2016. DRS was used for the first time in the Border–Gavaskar Trophy in this series, although Hot Spot was not used. Australia played the first Test match in Pune, just one day after they played a Twenty20 International match against Sri Lanka in Adelaide.
