India and Australia take part in the 1st T20I of the five-match series today in Visakhapatnam. These two sides just played the Cricket World Cup 2023 final and four days later, they are taking each other on in the T20Is. There is a criticism that too much cricket is being played these days and that the series could have started a little late. However, it is also true that most of the players in both the sides are fresh faces as the teams being the prep for the T20 Wold Cup 2024 which will be held at some time after Indian Premier League ends in May.
India will be led by Suryakumar Yadav. He is leading a young squad that includes the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rinku Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan. These will be some of the players among others who will be vying for a spot in the final 15 that goes to West Indies and USA to play the next T20 World Cup.
Australia too have brought a new squad which will be led by experienced Matthew Wade. The likes of Tim David, Sean Abbot, Nathan Ellis, Tanveer Sangha will be some of the players to watch out for.
