IND vs AUS Live Score: Will Deepak Chahar get a chance?

Deepak Chahar is back in the T20 mix and his ability to move the new ball should be considered for his inclusion in the playing XI along with death overs specialist Mukesh Kumar, who is back after one-match break.

IND vs AUS Live Score: Prasidh, Avesh eye redemption

Both Prasidh Krishna and Avesh Khan lack variety and innovation as they keep pitching the ball at the same length. Both bowl in late 130s or early 140s but consistently pitch it back of the length and the nature of Indian tracks make it a cannon fodder for batters. Also not being able to use variations like conventional or wide yorkers has been the undoing of these bowlers who also didn’t execute slower deliveries properly.

India vs Australia Live Score: Bowling unit a concern for India

India’s second-string attack did not paint a good picture of itself by not defending 40-plus runs in the final two overs in the third match which the Australians won while chasing a daunting 223-run target. There is a possibility of a minor tweak in the Indian line-up after Prasidh Krishna gave away 68 runs in four overs, including 21 in the final over.

IND vs AUS Live Score: India’s loss in 3rd T20I

After trailing 0-2 in the five-match series, Australia bounced back in style in the third match with a thumping five-wicket win. Chasing 223, Glenn Maxwell remained unbeaten at 104 off 48 balls and took Australia across the line on the last ball. They will now look to deliver a similar performance to level the series.
