Since last playing a dead-rubber during this year's Asia Cup, Arshdeep hasn't found a place in India's white-ball teams despite being their highest wicket-taker in the T20Is.

Team India is playing another white-ball game Down Under, and for the third time in this ongoing series, there are no signs of their highest wicket-taker in T20Is, Arshdeep Singh, in the playing XI. Although his absence from the recently concluded three-match ODI series is understandable, given he is not among the first-team picks in that format, the head coach and captain benching him for the first T20I in Canberra irked the fans, who took to social media to bash Gautam Gambhir for his ‘biased selection’. India is playing two seamers in the series opener, ace quick Jasprit Bumrah, who returns to the side, and Harshit Rana. Suryakumar Yadav lost the toss, with Australian captain Mitchell Marsh sending India out to bat first at the Manuka Oval. Upon announcing the team for the first of the five games, the Indian Cricket Fans were left shocked over Arshdeep’s omission. Although he hasn’t been part of Team India’s T20I setup lately, having been benched in most games in the Asia Cup this year, his credentials are too good not to consider him for selection. With 101 wickets in 65 contested matches, Arshdeep Singh leads the wickets tally for India in the shortest format, with Hardik Pandya, the second-highest wicket-taker in T20Is, also absent from the scene. Jasprit Bumrah, the ace quick, sits in the third place with 96 wickets and counting and the out-of-favour leggie Yuzvendra Chahal, who also has as many wickets (96) to his name, was not even considered for selection. Here is Team India’s playing XI for their series opener against Australia – Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson(w), Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakaravarthy, Jasprit Bumrah Here are some of the social media reactions to Arshdeep’s omission from the playing XI -

IND vs AUS 1st T20I: Rinku Singh exacts revenge on Australia, but why did his six not count? | Know More

<p>India edged past Australia by two wickets in the five-match T20I series opener, in Visakhapatnam, on Thursday (Nov 23). Opting to bowl first, Indian bowlers were taken to the cleaners courtesy of Josh Inglis' 50-ball 110 as the Aussies posted 208 for 3. However, at one point even a total in excess of 220 looked possible. In reply, India were tottering at 22 for 2 before Suryakumar Yadav (42-ball 80) and Ishan Kishan (39-ball 58) stitched a memorable 112-run third-wicket stand whereas Rinku Singh played a crucial hand (14-ball 22*) to take the hosts home in a last-over thriller.</p>

<p>After the game, Suryakumar opened up on a memorable win as India went&nbsp;1-0 up in the five T20Is. This was SKY's first-ever game as India captain and the veteran right-hander ended with an impressive knock, also winning the Player-of-the-Match.

<p>SKY also heaped praise on Rinku, who is slowly but steadily gaining a name for himself as India's T20I finisher. "I think it was very calm, though, but it was a very it was a pressure situation.

We didn't want to put too much pressure on the later batters, credit to Surya bhai, he planned his innings superbly, he can always play the big shots whenever needed. The plan was to get quick runs (on the partnership), so even if I got out, we needed the runs on the board. The ball I got out, he wanted me to look for a single, but the gap between runs required and balls left was big and I had to go for my shots. It's a young side, most of them have not played against big teams like this, we'll make mistakes, we'll talk about it during the team meetings and come back better with the ball in the next match."</p>

India edged past Australia by two wickets in the five-match T20I series opener, in Visakhapatnam, on Thursday (Nov 23). Opting to bowl first, Indian bowlers were taken to the cleaners courtesy of Josh Inglis' 50-ball 110 as the Aussies posted 208 for 3.

India edged past Australia by two wickets in the five-match T20I series opener, in Visakhapatnam, on Thursday (Nov 23). Opting to bowl first, Indian bowlers were taken to the cleaners courtesy of Josh Inglis' 50-ball 110 as the Aussies posted 208 for 3. However, at one point even a total in excess of 220 looked possible. In reply, India were tottering at 22 for 2 before Suryakumar Yadav (42-ball 80) and Ishan Kishan (39-ball 58) stitched a memorable 112-run third-wicket stand whereas Rinku Singh played a crucial hand (14-ball 22*) to take the hosts home in a last-over thriller. After the game, Suryakumar opened up on a memorable win as India went 1-0 up in the five T20Is. This was SKY's first-ever game as India captain and the veteran right-hander ended with an impressive knock, also winning the Player-of-the-Match. Post India's win, SKY credited wicketkeeper-batter Kishan for his whirlwind knock. "I think he helped me really well. For me to be fearless, him staying there, and his knock was very important," Surya said in the BCCI video.

Ind vs Aus, 1st T20I: 'He helped me' - Suryakumar credits Kishan for his 'fearless' 80 on captaincy debut

<p>Former India opener Aakash Chopra has hailed the impact of Suryakumar Yadav in the T20I format as he kick-started the nation’s resurgence after the ODI World Cup final defeat. Riding on his excellent show with the bat, Suryakumar scored 80 runs and laid the foundation for the two-wicket win against the Aussies on Thursday (Nov 23) in Visakhapatnam. According to Chopra, he is the perfect player for the format and excels while playing for India.</p>

<h2><strong>Chopra heaps praise on SKY</strong></h2>

<p>"He is a 360-degree kind of player who comes in with a reputation that makes bowlers think differently. Plan differently, have rather strange field positions because he makes you do that. He plays with freedom in the shortest format and the pitch that was there was for him to exploit because this is the kind of surface you get 9 out of 10 times in T20Is," Aakash Chopra said while speaking to Jio Cinema.</p>

<p>Despite entering the final over with seven runs needed and five wickets in hand,&nbsp;a final ball finish led India home as Rinku Singh (22) did the trick. Sean Abbott bowled a decent over but his costly error on the last ball saw India home.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"He comes into his own when he is batting in this format and therefore, you always saw that there was a deep fine leg in, there was a mid-on fielder inside the circle. You need those different field positions even though your plans are very different. You can think of bowling a back-of-the-hand slower one, but even while doing so, he can hit you over fine leg for a six. Then he hits you straight," Chopra added.</p>

<p>Earlier, Josh Inglis powered the Aussies to 208 in their 20 overs, having completed his ton in 47 balls. His contribution was vital, but ultimately went in vain as India won by two wickets in Vizag.

Under Suryakumar Yadav, India opted to bowl first, but Josh Inglis' 50-ball 110 propelled Australia to 208 for 3 in 20 overs. In reply, India were on the back foot at 22 for 2 before Ishan Kishan's 39-ball 58, Surya's 42-ball 80 and Rinku Singh's 14-ball 22 not out took India past the finish line in 19.5 overs after Sean Abbott bowled a no-ball on the final delivery, with two needed for a win.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After the triumph, India achieved a special feat as they have now become the side with the most successful run-chases of 200 or more in the shortest format of the game.

<p>At the post-match presentation, stand-in captain SKY said, "Very happy with the way the boys played. Was very happy with their energy, we were put under pressure but the way everyone showed up was amazing. It’s a proud moment, very proud moment, everytime you play, you think about representing India but coming out here and captaining India is a big moment. Thought there will be a little bit of dew but there wasn’t. It isn’t a big ground and I knew batting will get easy. Thought they might get 230-235 but the bowlers did really well. Just enjoy and express yourself. We’ve been in such situations many times in franchise cricket, just told Ishan to enjoy himself. We knew what was going to happen."</p>

<p>He added, "I left the luggage of captaincy in the dressing room. I try to enjoy my batting. The atmosphere was amazing, thanks to the crowd. Was great to see how the boys kept their nerves. Was great to see Rinku, the situation was tailor-made for him. He was calm and collected, calmed me down a little bit. Incredible achievement from the bowlers to restrict them to this total after the 16th over."</p>

<p>The second T20I will be held at the&nbsp;Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram on Sunday (Nov 26). A young Indian team will be looking to surge their lead going forward and make a strong statement ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup&nbsp;in the West Indies and the USA.</p>

In reply, India were on the back foot at 22 for 2 before Ishan Kishan's 39-ball 58, Surya's 42-ball 80 and Rinku Singh's 14-ball 22 not out took India past the finish line in 19.5 overs after Sean Abbott bowled a no-ball on the final delivery, with two needed for a win. After the triumph, India achieved a special feat as they have now become the side with the most successful run-chases of 200 or more in the shortest format of the game. India went past the finish line for the fifth time during a run-chase of 200 or more, surpassing South Africa's tally (4). Most successful run-chases of 200 or more in T20Is 5 - India 4 - South Africa 3 - Pakistan 3 - Australia Also read: 1st T20I: Suryakumar, Rinku star in tight win for India in curtain-raiser against Australia At the post-match presentation, stand-in captain SKY said, "Very happy with the way the boys played. Was very happy with their energy, we were put under pressure but the way everyone showed up was amazing. It’s a proud moment, very proud moment, everytime you play, you think about representing India but coming out here and captaining India is a big moment. Thought there will be a little bit of dew but there wasn’t. It isn’t a big ground and I knew batting will get easy. Thought they might get 230-235 but the bowlers did really well. Just enjoy and express yourself. We’ve been in such situations many times in franchise cricket, just told Ishan to enjoy himself. We knew what was going to happen." He added, "I left the luggage of captaincy in the dressing room. I try to enjoy my batting. The atmosphere was amazing, thanks to the crowd. Was great to see how the boys kept their nerves. Was great to see Rinku, the situation was tailor-made for him. He was calm and collected, calmed me down a little bit. Incredible achievement from the bowlers to restrict them to this total after the 16th over." The second T20I will be held at the Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram on Sunday (Nov 26). A young Indian team will be looking to surge their lead going forward and make a strong statement ahead of the 2024 T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA.

IND vs AUS 1st T20: Weather and pitch report from Vishakhapatnam ahead of India vs Australia 1st T20

<p>Team India’s new T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav is set to make his debut on Thursday (Nov 23) as the hosts look to put behind their disappointing ODI World Cup final loss against Australia. A young Indian side led by Suryakumar is aiming to play free-flowing cricket despite the team’s recent hangover against the Aussies. Australia beat India by six wickets in the ODI World Cup final to clinch their sixth title.</p>

<h2><strong>Surya ready for fearless cricket</strong></h2>

<p>“Keeping the T20 World Cup in mind, the games which we are going to play until then are very important. My message to them is very clear, and do whatever it takes to help the team and they have been doing that in the IPL, they have played a lot of domestic cricket as well recently,” Suryakumar said in the pre-match press conference.</p>

<p>“So, they are in good form, which I heard from our support staff. I have told them only one thing: ‘Just enjoy your time in the middle, do the same thing, and don’t do anything differently’. At the end of the day, it’s just a game of cricket,” he added.</p>

<h2><strong>Can India fire under Suryakumar?</strong></h2>

<p>India have opted to field a younger squad for the five-match T20I series which will see them take on the Aussies in Visakhapatnam in the curtain-raiser. The likes of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and KL Rahul have been rested for the series after being stretched for the tournament. Young guns like Rinku Singh, Tilak Varma, and Prasidh Krishna have been included in the squad with Shreyas Iyer joining for the last two matches where he will also serve as the vice-captain.</p>

<p>However, among notable absentees, Yuzvendra Chahal and Sanju Samson have been dropped and are not part of the contingent. Samson was in the Indian squad for the West Indies and Ireland tour before the Asian Cup, but has now dropped down in the pecking order.

<p>After winning the ODI series 2-1, Australia will take on India in a three-match T20I series starting December 4 (Friday) at the Manuka Oval in Canberra.</p>

<p>The Virat Kohli-led India will have some fresh faces in the squad when it comes to the shortest format of the game and will look to enter the series by winning the T20Is. Whereas, Australia would look to continue their winning run and bag the T20I series after the ODI matches.</p>
