In the opening game, India batted admirably, scoring over 200 runs, but was helpless as Australia easily finished off the score with little difficulty. India’s bowling has been heavily criticised in recent weeks, and it will need to immediately come up with solutions. The India vs. Australia T20 series consists of just three games, making this contest crucial for team India. However, Australia has triumphed in its last four T20 international matches against India and will attempt to maintain this edge.
Match Preview
There will be some cloud cover in the sky. The pitch leans towards pacers in the second inning but advantages hitters in the first. It is challenging for hitters to score because of the longer boundaries. One of the largest grounds in the world in terms of playing surface, it includes 85-yard square limits and 80-yard straight boundaries. However, it will rain before the game. As a result, the second innings will contain dew. Consequently, the team who won the toss should bowl first.
Team Preview
We anticipate seeing Jasprit Bumrah back in the India XI for this match after he was left off the roster for the first game of the series. On Tuesday night, Bhuvneshwar Kumar was very pricey, but we believe Bumrah will replace Umesh Yadav. India is still experimenting as the T20 World Cup approaches, but their performance in this format has been subpar. In their previous four games, they have only one victory.
Tim David made his debut for Australia in the first game of the series in Mohali after playing 14 T20I for Singapore. After the game on Tuesday, there were no concerns regarding injuries, and we assume that Aaron Finch will captain the same team for this encounter. Australia is playing fantastic T20 cricket right now. In their previous five games, they have prevailed in four of them.
