India vs Australia: Rohit Sharma and Co eye much-needed ... (Scroll.in)

After a disappointing Asia Cup campaign, India will continue to search for answers and eye an improved performance against Aaron Finch's team.

India won the last bilateral series in the shortest format, played Down Under in December 2020. India will play three T20Is against South Africa after the Australia series and a lot will be riding on these six matches. Virat Kohli, who got his long-awaited 71st international century during the Asia Cup, will be confident and India will expect him to keep up the aggressive approach once he gets his eye. Rahul, meanwhile, is still trying to settle in after making a comeback at the Asia Cup and will be expected to take some pressure off Rohit and start strong. Chahal has proved to be expensive in the past but has been providing breakthroughs and India are likely to persist with him with the World Cup coming up. India entered as defending champions at the Asia Cup recently but defeats in the Super Fours stage to Pakistan and eventual winners Sri Lanka meant they couldn’t reach the final.

Sharma works it to mid-wicket and runs across for a single. This is on a length and outside off, jags away. Hazlewood bowls this full and on middle, KL Rahul takes a couple of steps down the pitch and flicks it over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie. Rahul flicks it behind square on the leg side for a couple of runs. Zampa bowls this slower through the air, on middle and turning away a bit, KL Rahul looks to drive it, but slices it in the air, and the ball goes just over the cover fielder and races away to the fence. Josh Hazlewood gets the breakthrough and this is a huge wicket for the Aussies as the Indian skipper has to go back to the hut. Hazlewood serves this full and on the pads, Rohit Sharma looks to flick it away but is a bit casual into his shot.

Australia bowl as David debuts; India leave out Pant (ESPNcricinfo.com)

India have chosen not to rush Bumrah back into the XI with Rohit saying he will probably play the second and third games.

He sent his first four balls - all from Umesh Yadav - for fours, with the third one demonstrating his firepower. Pat Cummins, though, got the job done with a four off the next ball. He reached his own fifty off 25 balls at the end of the 19th over and with only No.8 Harshal for company, he farmed the strike in the last and closed out the innings with 6,6,6. Green might not have even played had Marsh or Marcus Stoinis been fit, but he seized his opportunity, giving Australia the blistering start they needed. Aaron Finch gambled with Green for the final over and the allrounder ended up conceding 21. Rahul took on the pace of Josh Hazlewood and Green while Suryakumar picked off 22 runs off nine balls from legspinner Adam Zampa.

India vs Australia series: Catch the live action, scores, highlights, commentary, updates, stats and more from IND vs AUS, 1st T20I.

The Sri Lankans found Josh Hazlewood, an IPL regular, too hot to handle in the T20I series at home in June, so he, too, can be a handful. Steve Smith has been in good form of late in One-Day Internationals and Tests, and in the absence of Marsh, is likely to occupy the No. Deepak Chahar would be keen to be in the thick of the action, too, after having played just a single match in the Asia Cup. India would be hoping to determine its bowling combination for the T20 World Cup. Both teams are full of T20 stars, but with a marquee event around the corner, neither team would give undue weightage to the results. The three-match T20I series against Australia that begins at the PCA stadium here on Tuesday offers the Indians yet another chance to show their T20 skills at home.

Arshdeep is a much better option [September 20, 2022] Check some of the reactions here: India dropping Green and Smith also did not help their cause. The stand-out bowler for India, Axar Patel, removed opposition skipper Aaron Finch to get a much-needed breakthrough. The seasoned Indian pacer felt the heat straightaway and resorted to bowling slower balls in his very first over, which did not work.

If I was in that changing room, I would expect to chase that total. We took wickets to an extent, but they played really well. You can back yourself to get 60 runs in the final 4 overs. "I don't think we bowled well. There are things we need to look at," a disappointed Rohit said at the presentation ceremony.
