India vs Australia T20I series: Full schedule, timings, squads and live streaming details
India will host Australia in a three-match T20I series.
Rohit Sharam-led India will be looking to fine-tune their preparations ahead of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2022 when they host Australia in a three-match T20I series starting from Tuesday (September 20). India last locked horns with Australia in a T20I series last year and won 2-1.
This will be India's first assignment since their disappointing exit from the recently-concluded Asia Cup 2022 in the UAE where the Men in Blue failed to make it to the final after facing straight defeats against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The hosts will be aiming to bounce back and regain some confidence ahead of the World Cup in Australia next month.
While it remains to be seen who will be groomed as the second all-rounder in the absence of Ravindra Jadeja, the series will also mark the return of fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel. After the Indian pacers' poor show at the Asia Cup, a lot will be riding on the shoulders of Bumrah and Harshal against the Aussies.
India were dealtwith a blow ahead of the start of the T20I series as senior pacer Mohammed Shami was ruled out of the three-match rubber after testing positive for COVID-19. He has been replaced by Umesh Yadav, who has been recalled to the T20I team after a long gap.

It will also be a litmus test for opening batter KL Rahul, who has come under pressure after failing to fire since his comeback from injury last month. Senior batter Virat Kohli will also be hoping to continue his fine form after rediscovering his mojo in the Asia Cup.
