The 3 match T20I series between India and Australia is about to start from 20 September. The first match of this series will be played in Mohali followed by matches in Nagpur and Hyderabad. India’s T20 series with Australia and South Africa ahead of the World Cup will show many shortcomings and provide an opportunity for team management to correct them and prepare themselves for the world cup.
Along with India and Australia, South Africa is also considered to be one of the strongest teams in international cricket. However, timing is not always the same for everyone. India’s situation in the last T20 matches (Asia Cup) was also below normal. As a result, it was eliminated from the Asia Cup final. At the same time, the condition of Australia has also been the same. Let us take a look at the last 5 T20 matches of India and Australia.
