Looking refreshed after a welcome break, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni was at pains Monday to drive home the point that an injury-free Indian team is ready for the forthcoming Test series in Australia.

Dhoni also specified that the team will try to stay away from controversy unlike the last tour in 2007-08.

Unlike the tour of England this summer, the Indian team would benefit greatly by not only sending a set of key players in advance to Australia but also a couple of practice games ahead of the first Test beginning Dec 26 in Melbourne, Dhoni pointed out.
