Whether it's Tests or ODIs, Australia has consistently dominated India, but in the shortest format of cricket, T20, the world champion Indian team has a significant dominance over Australia. India has consistently dominated Australia in T20s for the past five years, winning three T20 series against Australia during this period. Suryakumar Yadav's team will face the challenge of maintaining this dominance when they face Australia in the first match of the five-match series at the Manuka Oval on Wednesday. Fortunately, the Indian team will be supported by experienced fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah in this series.
Bumrah was rested for the ODI series. Dealing with Bumrah and mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy will be difficult for Australia. Captain Suryakumar Yadav will also have a chance to regain his lost form through this series. While Suryakumar is out of form, the rest of the Indian team has been performing consistently well, including the excellent batting of Abhishek Sharma and Tilak Varma. However, the match will not be easy. Australia will have the advantage of playing at home. Both India and Australia have won eight of their last 10 T20 matches and lost just one. Australia's one match ended in a draw, and India's one was tied. Consequently, both teams are in excellent form.
Suryakumar is comfortable with Australian pitches.
The way Suryakumar plays his strokes behind the stumps, the bounce of the pitches here is expected to suit his batting. Suryakumar has scored three half-centuries in six matches in Australia. He has amassed 239 runs so far. With support from head coach Gautam Gambhir, it is hoped that Suryakumar will return to form. Suryakumar said before the match, "I think I'm working hard. It's not that I wasn't working hard before. I practiced well at home, and I've had a good two to three sessions here too. I think I'm in a good frame of mind."
Since Suryakumar became captain, the Indian team has prioritized playing fearless cricket. This is why India has won 23 of the 29 matches played under his captaincy. India has won all bilateral series under his captaincy.
Dealing with extra bounce will be a challenge for Abhishek. Dealing with extra bounce on Australian pitches will be a new challenge for opener Abhishek Sharma, who performed brilliantly in the Asia Cup. Therefore, Captain Suryakumar's contribution becomes even more important. The presence of Bumrah and Varun has made the Indian bowling attack even more lethal. Varun, Kuldeep, and Axar will be key to their 12 overs.
Suryakumar said, "Bumrah's presence increases our chances."
According to Suryakumar, the powerplay overs will be crucial, and Bumrah's presence will enhance our chances during this period. Having Bumrah has always been beneficial for the team against Australia's aggressive style. Suryakumar said, "In the Asia Cup, Bumrah took on the responsibility of bowling at least two overs in the powerplay. Bowling in the power play will be a big challenge."
