Australia Tour Of India: Squads, Timings And More

Australia tour of India

Australia Tour of India: This is a 7 match tour with 2 T20 I series and 5 ODI series. This is the last series of India before the world cup. After this series, IPL will start on 23 March. After defeating Australia in one-day series and T20 series in Australia. However, the Indian cricket team is full of confidence after New Zealand matches. Indian team shows that they are a hot favorite for winning the world cup 2019.

Indians will like to do the full dress rehearsal in this series before going to the world cup. They will not do any testing of a new face in this series because they won’t change in the world cup squad. If India wins this series both T20 and one day international they will have a chance to be world no 1 team in both ODI and T20 International. We might see the change in players’ performance within the Australia tour of India match.

Squad for T20 International: Australia Tour of India

India:– Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Krunal Pandya, Vijay Shankar, Lokesh Rahul, Rishabh pant, Dinesh Karthik, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Siddharth Kaul, Umesh Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzevendra Chahal, Mayank markhande .

Australia:- Aaron finch, Usman Khawaja, Shaun Marsh, Darcy shot , Peter Handscomb, Marcus Stoinis, Glenn Maxwell, Ashton Turner, jhye Richardson, Nathan Coulternile, Jason Beherndoff, Nathan Lyon, Adam zampa.

India will be in confidence as Captain Virat Kohli return back in the squad. Indian pace battery increases with the return of Bumrah and Umesh Yadav, Bhubaneswar Kumar and Kuldeep Yadav have given rest in T20 and some ODI. A blow for India is Hardik Pandya misses out due to injury.

The Australian team lacks confidence his top bowler Mitchell Starc misses out due to injury. Captain finch is not in form from the last series. Whole Australian team struggles against Indian spinner in the last series. So I think it’s tough for Australia to defeat India on their home ground.
