Just four days after losing to Australia in the ODI World Cup final in Ahmedabad, India will once again face their rivals in a five-match T20I series. With the T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA looming, the focus shifts to the shorter format. Suryakumar Yadav will assume the captaincy for India, becoming the seventh captain since former skipper Virat Kohli stepped down. 

The Australian side, led by Matthew Wade, will be looking to end their lengthy tour of India on a high note. Wade has captained Australia's T20I team on seven previous occasions, including a series against India in 2020. He also led Australia in their final match of the 2022 World Cup when Aaron Finch was sidelined due to injury. 

The opening T20I at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium will mark the second T20I encounter between India and Australia at the venue. Australia emerged victorious in the previous T20I played here, securing a three-wicket win with no balls remaining. 

In a total of ten T20I series played between India and Australia, the former have emerged victorious five times while Australia have won two, with the remaining three series ending in a draw. In the five series played in India, the hosts have won three while Australia won and drew one each.
