India Adelaide Oval T20 stats: Adelaide India T20 matches all result list 2022

The Indian cricket team has returned to Adelaide after almost a couple of years for their imminent ICC T20 World Cup 2022 match against Bangladesh today. As far as the shortest format is concerned, India will be participating in a T20I at the Adelaide Oval after almost seven years.

Although quite comfortably placed in Group 2 points table, India still need to win this match to not depend on the results of other teams in a bid to qualify for semi-finals. Coming on the back of a 6-wicket loss against South Africa, India wouldn’t want to lose two back-to-back Super 12 matches as it will do nothing but increase pressure on the Indian cricketers before their last match of this round against Zimbabwe.

Having maintained a stellar head-to-head T20I record against this particular opposition, there is no reason whatsoever why India shouldn’t be able to come out as the winning team on Wednesday.

Adelaide, which hosted a T20I after three years during this tournament, hosted India in the shortest format after almost seven years earlier this week. The only instance before the World Cup of an Adelaide T20I featuring India had been recorded during India’s tour of Australia 2016.

Only the third T20I here was the first of a three-match series witnessing India winning by 37 runs after Virat Kohli scored a match-winning 90* (55) with the help of nine fours and two sixes. India-Bangladesh Super 12 match further improved their T20I record here. A 5-run DLS victory meant that India have won both their Adelaide T20Is till date.

Readers must note that Kohli is India’s highest run-scorer at this stadium. In 14 innings here, the right-handed batter has scored five centuries and three half-centuries across formats. Hence, don’t be surprised if you yet another Kohli masterclass in the second semi-final on Thursday. Ravichandran Ashwin, meanwhile, is India’s second-highest wicket-taker here with his 21 scalps across 11 innings.

Talking exclusively about T20Is played at this venue, Kohli (154), KL Rahul (50), Rohit Sharma (33) and Suryakumar Yadav (30) are India’s highest run-scorers among players taking part in this World Cup. Among bowlers, Hardik Pandya (4), Arshdeep Singh (2), Ashwin (2) and Mohammed Shami (1) have picked wickets in Adelaide T20Is.

Overall, India have been playing at this iconic venue since 1948. Although they have won only two out of 13 Adelaide Tests, they have won nine out of 15 Adelaide ODIs over the years.
