Led by stand-in skipper Suryakumar Yadav, the team is set to compete in a five-match T20 series, commencing on November 23.
Shortly after the disappointing defeat in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023, Team India is gearing up to face the same opponent, Australia, in a T20I series. Led by stand-in skipper Suryakumar Yadav, the team is set to compete in a five-match T20 series, commencing on November 23.
Hardik Pandya has been sidelined since the middle of the ODI World Cup due to an ankle injury, which has kept the all-rounder out of action. The T20 squad confronting Australia shows notable differences from the one India fielded in the World Cup, with selectors opting to introduce fresh faces.
Meanwhile, Australia has also made several changes to their squad, resting key players from their World Cup-winning side, including veteran opener David Warner and skipper Pat Cummins.
