The last encounter saw India showcasing their batting prowess, amassing an impressive total of 222-3, courtesy of an outstanding unbeaten innings of 123 off just 57 balls by Ruturaj Gaikwad . Despite this formidable score, India's fast bowlers, notably Prasidh Krishna and Arshdeep Singh, faced challenges and couldn't defend the target, ultimately allowing Australia to secure a last-ball victory.

Australia, however, is not without its challenges, as key players like Glenn Maxwell and Sean Abbott are absent. The team is incorporating fresh talent, including Josh Philippe and Ben McDermott, to fortify their batting order. The exceptional form of Travis Head and his leadership role in the batting department will be pivotal, especially against the relatively inexperienced Indian bowling attack.
