Preview
The first T20I of the five-match series between India and Australia will take place at the Dr. Y. S. Rajashekar Reddy ACA–VDCA International Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam. After the ODI World Cup 2023 final clash, these two teams will have to quickly move to the T20I mindset as the upcoming series is set to begin in just a couple of days. Although India has a decent record against Australia in the shortest format in recent times, they will have to bring their A-game to the floor in order to keep on winning at their expense.
Pitch Report
The pitches at the Dr. Y. S. Rajashekar Reddy ACA–VDCA International Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam have produced a few indifferent totals in T20Is, allowing the bowlers to dictate terms to the batters at times. The average innings score after three completed matches at this venue in T20Is is 129, which is something both India and Australia are expected to overhaul with their explosive batting lineups, irrespective of the pitch in store on November 23.
Team Analysis
India
The captain Suryakumar Yadav, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Ishan Kishan are some of the Indian batters to watch out for, during the upcoming T20I series against Australia at home. In the bowling side of things, Arshdeep Singh, Prasidh Krishna, and Axar Patel have the quality to become the most potent bowlers for India in front of a formidable batting lineup of the Aussies.

Australia
The captain Matthew Wade, Travis Head, Marcus Stoinis, and Glenn Maxwell in the Australian batting lineup will be posing a serious threat to the Indian bowlers in the T20I series. As far as their bowling goes, Adam Zampa is clearly the best bowler in the entire squad, but the rest of the cartel, including the fast bowlers like Sean Abbott, Nathan Ellis, and Jason Behrendorff will be itching to make an impact with the ball in hand too.

Match Prediction
Conclusion
India will have a slight advantage over Australia in the first T20I considering the fact that the five-match series will be played at home. But, the Aussies are known to be always up for a tough challenge, which won’t make this game any easier for the Men in Blue.
