A struggling Australia will be looking forward to recollecting all their confidence before taking the field against India on Wednesday in the opening game of the 3-match T20I series at the Gabba in Brisbane. The visitors are high on confidence as they have won their previous seven T20I series dating back to November 2017, and its last defeat in the format was against West Indies in July last year.


Australian cricket, in contrast, has been dogged by structural reform in the wake of the ball-tampering saga in South Africa in March and it has resulted in turbulence on the field as well. In the absence of Smith and Warner, Australia's results have fallen off a cliff. Since then, the Australians are yet to win a T20I series against an opposition of note since March.


It’s yet to be seen whether being on home turf would raise the spirits for the once invincible Aussies or India will outclass the kangaroos in their own backyard.
