Team India are reluctant to travel to Brisbane for the fourth Test if they are placed under hard lockdown in Queensland. India made it clear from the beginning, once they had completed their initial 14-day quarantine in Sydney upon landing, that they were unwilling for hard lockdown during the rest of the tour.
According to reports in the Australian media, both teams would be ordered into hotel quarantine in Queensland if the series progresses to the Gabba via Sydney. It means both squads would only be allowed to leave their hotels for training sessions and to play the fourth Test match.
