The final T20I between India and Australia at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is certain to amaze the fans with all the high action.

So far the equation reads 1-1 and both the teams would be keen to make one perfect shot and the victory would mean quite a lot to the winning team.

Following India’s fiasco at the hands of Australia in the 2nd T20 gives a confirmation that there is no chance for India to claim the No.2 spot even if they get the better of Aussies in the deciding T20I fixture.

A win for India will be a perfect treat for the fans ahead of Diwali whereas Aussies will be curious to making a brisk statement again to seal the series after all the major pushbacks that they have been through.

Aussies’ rise from the ashes in their do or die contest meant that they have something left in them to respond as a collective unit before it is too late.

Australia boasts an impeccable strike force to wield the blade with the likes of Warner, Finch, Maxwell and to swing the ball at a swift pace, they have got the young prospect Jason Behrendorff who smothered Indians last time.

As far as India are concerned, the wrist-spinners are by far the force to be reckoned with and pacers like Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Bumrah are also in good rhythm as well.

Indian batsmen failed to hunker in on the pitch last time but will hope to not repeat the same mistakes again.

India’s Probable XI:

Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli (c), KL Rahul, Dinesh Karthik, MS Dhoni (wk), Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Yuzvendra Chahal, Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav.

Australia’s Probable XI:

Aaron Finch, David Warner (c), Moises Henriques, Glenn Maxwell, Travis Head, Marcus Stoinis, Tim Paine (wk), Andrew Tye, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Adam Zampa, Jason Behrendorff.
