India take on Australia in the opening game of a three-match T20I series at 1.40 pm IST today at Manuka Oval, Canberra.

Going into this series, there will be changes in the playing XI of both the teams. Marnus Labuschagne isn’t considered to be a T20 specialist and he will be replaced at the top. The right-handed batsman had opened the innings in the third ODI.

For India, Deepak Chahar is confirmed selection in the playing XI. He is likely to come in for Jasprit Bumrah, who is expected to be rested. Yuzvendra Chahal will also be back into the playing XI in place of Kuldeep Yadav, who isn’t part of the T20I squad. KL Rahul will open the innings with Shikhar Dhawan.

India take the opening game of the T20I series against Australia.

India defeats Australia by 11 runs in first T20I in Canberra to take 1-0 lead in three-match series.

  • Australia skipper Aaron Finch won the toss and opted to bowl. India posted a total of 161 runs for the loss of 7 wickets.

  • KL Rahul was the highest run-scorer, accumulating 51 runs off 40 deliveries. The wicketkeeper-batsman registered his 12th half-century in T20Is, during the course of the innings.

  • All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was the second-highest run-getter, smashing 44 runs off 23 balls.

  • Moises Henriques was the pick of the bowlers for Australia taking 3 wickets while conceding 22 runs.

  • The chase started off an attacking note with Finch smashing the ball to all corners of the ground. However, the Australia skipper’s dismissal helped Team India make a comeback in the game.

  • Yuzvendra Chahal, who came in as a concussion substitute for Ravindra Jadeja made a decisive impact, accounting for Finch’s dismissal before sending back Steve Smith early.

  • Chahal received support from left-arm pacer T Natarajan who made his presence felt on debut.

The duo finished with 3 wickets apiece to help Team India register a win which seemed unlikely at one stage.

India vs Australia, 1st T20I: Ravindra Jadeja breaks MS Dhoni’s unique record in T20Is

Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja on Friday surpassed former skipper MS Dhoni’s record of the highest score by an Indian batting at number 7 or below in the T20 Internationals during his handy 44-run knock against Australia in the first T20I.

Dhoni had scored 38 runs in just 18 balls against England at the Wankhede Stadium in 2012. Jadeja, who came out to bat at number 7 smashed 44 runs off just 23 balls. The innings included one six and five fours.
Jadeja came out to bat at a time when India had lost half its side for just 92 on a batting pitch with short boundaries. The southpaw gained momentum in the final overs and India managed to go past the 160 mark.

Finch joins David Warner (groin) and all-rounder Marcus Stoinis (side) on the injured list. With vice-captain Pat Cummins rested ahead of the India Test series, Smith along with Matthew Wade are the only possible choice to replace Finch as the captain.

Will Cricket Australia recall Steve Smith as captain?

Steve Smith was banned for two years from a leadership role in the Aussie team following the infamous “Sandpaper gate”, which was ball-tampering scandal in Cape Town.
