Australia will try to regain their flow in this game and win to maintain the series. There will be a lot on the line for both sides going into this game.
Cricket fans are glued to their seats as the Australia tour of India progresses, taking in an exciting Twenty20 International series between two of the game’s biggest powers, Australia and India. India now leads the series 2-0 after winning the first two games of the series. The pivotal third game, which India hopes to win 3-0 to complete the series, is scheduled to take place at the ACA Stadium in Kamrup Metropolitan. Now let’s get into the match specifics, team summaries, and some important numbers that have influenced the series thus far.
India had won the first two meetings, demonstrating their supremacy in the series. Notably, both first-batting teams have scored 200 or more, while the chasing teams have played admirably, managing to score 190 or higher. Five half-centuries have been achieved by Indian batsmen, compared to one fifty-and-a-century by Australian batters. Everyone is wondering if India can complete a clean sweep as the scene is set for the third and final match.
India triumphed by 44 runs after scoring a whopping 235/4 in their 20 overs. Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gailwad, and Yashaswi Jaiswal, who batted in the top three for India, all scored crucial fifties to forge partnerships and steer their innings. They reached an enormous total with to rapid-fire knocks from Rinku Singh and Surya Kumar Yadav.
Throughout the game, their bowlers held Australia to 191/9. In the previous match, Ravi Bishnoi (3/32) and Prasiddh Krishna (3/41) shared six wickets between them. Arshdeep Singh, Mukesh Kumar, and Axar Patel all contributed significant wickets to the match.
Important individuals: Yashaswi Jaiswal, Ravi Bishnoi, and Arshdeep Singh
India Predicted XI:
Mukesh Kumar, Arshdeep Singh, Prasiddh Krishna, Rinku Singh, Tilak Varma, Axar Patel, Ishan Kishan, Ruturaj Gailwad, Surya Kumar Yadav
Australia finished with 191 runs after failing to chase a huge total. In the middle order, Mathew Wade, Tim David, and Marcus Stoinis all played excellent aggressive knocks. For this game, Travis Head might start in lieu of Mathew Short in the starting lineup.
The Australian bowling squad is having a lot of trouble stopping the aggressive Indian hitters. The only bowlers with respectable numbers who gave at only 8 RPO were the spinners Adam Zampa and Tanveer Sangha; all other bowlers went for 10+ RPO. Nathan Ellis, Sean Abbott, and Marcus Stoinis were unable to have a significant effect on this game.
Important players: Adam Zampa, Tim David, and Marcus Stoinis
Australia Predicted XI:
Steve Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Mathew Wade, Sean Abbott, Adam Zampa, Tanveer Sangha, Josh Inglis, Marcus Stoinis, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, and Travis Head
The weather in Guwahati is predicted to be sunny and bright, with no expected weather disruptions throughout the match.
We anticipate another run feast in this match because the Guwahati pitch is often batting friendly and the decreased boundary dimensions may have a significant impact.
Toss: To Bowl
As this will be a high-scoring game and no score is secure under these circumstances, both teams will try to bowl first.
Indian hitters are contributing to this series’ runs and have excellent rhythm. They play well together and have a good pace and spin assault. Australia’s hitters have shown promise in spurts, with their middle order players particularly impressing in the most recent match. When it counts, their bowlers’ underwhelming performance is costing them dearly. India is our pick to win both this game and the series 3-0.
