India (IND) clinched the five-match series against Australia (AUS) with a convincing 20-run win in the fourth T20I. However, the home side will aim to make it 4-1 going into the final match at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium on Sunday, December 3. Australia, on the other hand, will want to end the tour on a positive note.
Notably, both the teams have fielded their second-string side for the series. Australia had some senior players, who were part of the 2023 ODI World Cup winning squad, for the first three matches but released them before the Raipur encounter. This is a great opportunity for India and Australia to test their bench strength ahead of the T20 World Cup in June 2024.
