After horrific Asia Cup campaign, Team India will aim to test its preparation when they will take on defending champion Australia in a three-match T20I home series, starting from September 20 in Mohali. The bilateral contest between both sides carries a rich history and the upcoming contest holds more importance considering the upcoming T20 World Cup. While Team India is coming on the back of below par performance in the Asia Cup 2022, Aaron Finch-led side is riding on confidence after whitewashing New Zealand in a three-match ODI series.
Having said that, Rohit Sharma & boys can never be underestimated on their home turf and Australian skipper has already admitted that he is expecting high-voltage contest in the series. While Team India will miss the services of Md Shami and Ravindra Jadeja, Australian side have rested David Warner for the India tour. The series provides great opportunity for both the teams to do the litmus test of their players’ potential, team composition and other crucial dimensions ahead of the T20 World Cup in Australia.
