Background
IND vs AUS Live Score: The first T20 match between India and Australia is about to be underway. The coin toss will be conducted soon between captains Suryakumar Yadav and Mitchell Marsh.
The toss played a crucial role in all the recent three IND vs AUS ODIs, but whether that happens to be the case in this format as well, remains to be seen.
This fixture is being played at the Manuka Oval in Canberra, Australia. The pitch here generally suits batsmen, and spinners later on. Notably, the Men in Blue have plenty of talent in their side in these departments.
India's Young Stars Put To The Test
With veterans like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma now relegated to only the 50-over format, the Indian team will be represented by young stars in this series.
The likes of Abhishek Sharma and Tilak Varma, who were instrumental in India's Asia Cup 2025 triumph, have a lot of expectations from fans, but playing against Australia in Australia will be a tough challenge.
Shubman Gill, who captained India in the ODI series against Australia and ended up losing 2-1, will also likely be under scrutiny, as he is yet to convert his solid starts into big innings on this tour
Having said that, it is also worthing noting that seasoned players like Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, and Axar Patel are also a part of the squad, which makes for a good balance of experience and young flair.
