In a five-match India Vs Australia Twenty20 series, Team India, captained by interim captain Surya Kumar Yadav, will play a strong Australian team following the disappointment of the ODI World Cup. The series’ opening game will take place on November 23 at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Vizag.
Since suffering an ankle injury that prevented him from playing in the major tournament, India captain Hardik Pandya has been sidelined. With the selectors choosing to give new players an opportunity, the T20 team playing the Australians tomorrow is very different from the one India used in the World Cup.
Australia, however, has also changed up its roster, resting a few important players.
