Actually, India’s two-month long Australia tour was to end on January 7 and the entire team was to board the flight back home on the 8th.

According to the report, Team India is looking for tickets to return home. Although India was supposed to fly out on January 8, due to the match ending early, some players may leave early and it depends on when the tickets are available. Some senior members have to fly on Monday only.
Along with the players and management of Team India, the media and fans will also be in a hurry to return to India. “The logistics manager is working on it for the team and the departures will start as soon as tickets are available,” said a source close to the development.
