India vs Australia 1st T20I: The 3-match ODI series between India and Australia has ended. The Kangaroos won the ODI series 2-1. Now the 5-match T20I is going to start between the two teams. Under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav, the Indian team is coming to play 20-20 format for the first time on Australian soil. However, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not be seen, as both have retired from this format. In such a situation, now the youth team will face Australia. Let us know when and where the first match of the series will be played…
When will the first T20I between India and Australia be played?
The first T20 International match between India and Australia will be played on 29th October. This match between the two teams is going to be held at Manuka Oval, Canberra. The match will start at 1:30 pm Indian time, while the toss will take place half an hour earlier at 1 pm. On Wednesday, the first battle of the series between the Indian team under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav and the explosive Australian team of Mitchell Marsh is going to be very exciting. Team India has fire power in its batting.
Will Abhishek Sharma’s explosive form continue in Australia?
Left-handed explosive Indian batsman Abhishek Sharma is in great form at the moment. Recently in Asia Cup 2025 he is coming after scoring 300 runs in 7 matches. He scored 3 consecutive back to back half centuries in that tournament. Not only this, his strike rate was 200.00. 19 sixes were hit from Abhishek’s bat. In such a situation, his bat can work on Australian pitch also. On Australian pitches, the ball comes with good bounce and fast pace, which can be helpful for Abhishek. Especially in Canberra, his bat can create noise.
