Australia defeated India by five wickets in Guwahati on Tuesday thanks to an amazing innings of unbeaten play by Glenn Maxwell, keeping the five-match Twenty20 International series alive between the two countries. India has a 2-1 series lead going into this game. Enjoy this sneak peek at this T20I. On Friday, the game begins at 19:00 local time at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur.

The team led by Suryakumar Yadav will continue to be perplexed as to how they lost the third game of the series despite scoring 222/3 in Guwahati, which included 30 runs from the last over. Nevertheless, there were still encouraging aspects of their performance, and we anticipate that they will prevail in this encounter.

Our choices for India at bat are Ruturaj Gaikwad, Suryakumar Yadav, and Shreyas Iyer. In Guwahati, opener Gaikwad was in outstanding form, hitting seven sixes and thirteen fours en route to his century. Shreyas Iyer is anticipated to carry over his confidence from the ODI World Cup and display his mastery in the final two Twenty20 international matches.

For Australia, our batting recommendations are Aaron Hardie, Travis Head, and Matthew Wade. All-rounder Hardie, who has a top T20 score of 90 not out, is a fine white ball player in domestic cricket. In the third Twenty20 International, he hit three boundaries at the top of the order.
