IND vs AUS 1st T20I: Team India will play Australia in a five-match Twenty20 International series starting on Wednesday, October 29, in Canberra. This will be Suryakumar Yadav’s first true test as a leader. The five games are expected to be an exciting sight for the fans because both clubs have had an incredible season. It will be amazing to watch Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill battle Josh Hazlewood in the power play.
While Australia just defeated South Africa and New Zealand in a Twenty20 International series, India is entering the series fresh off their victory in the Asia Cup 2025. Before the prestigious T20 World Cup, which will be held in India and Sri Lanka early next year, both teams will try to hone their talents.
Glenn Maxwell, an all-rounder for Australia, will only be eligible for the final three Twenty20 Internationals after suffering a bizarre injury before the start of the New Zealand series. After missing the three-match ODI series, which Australia won 2-1, Jasprit Bumrah is back for India.
