The Indian skipper, who has been given a paternity leave by the BCCI, will return home after the first Test. Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma are expecting their first child in January 2021.
Kohli was recently in United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 season.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) lost to SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the Eliminator. RCB finished at fourth place in the league stage of IPL 2020.
He had a poor start to his campaign, but soon bounced back, scoring a total of 466 runs from 14 matches at a strike rate of 121.35. He also notched three half-centuries. His boundary count consisted of 23 fours and 11 sixes.
India will play their first ODI against Australia on November 27. The first T20I takes place on December 4, and the four-match Test series begins on December 17.
Team India have already begun their training sessions in their bio-secure bubble. The rise in COVID-19 cases in South Australia has put the tour in disarray, but no cancellation or postponement has been announced yet.
