Indian openers Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag are recovering fast from their injuries and will be available for the VB tri-series match against Australia on February 1, team physiotherapist Andrew Leipus said on Thursday.

"Sachin is coming along nicely and progressing with his rehabilitation," he said. "He will be fine."

Tendulkar has sat out of India's last three matches with an ankle injury while Sehwag is recovering from a shoulder strain.

India will also play against Zimbabwe in Perth on February 3 before the best of three finals on February 6, 8 and 10.

Leg-spinner Anil Kumble, who has a sore shoulder, will be left out of the two matches in Perth, Leipus added.
