AUS vs IND T20I Series: Team India Set to Face Australia in Canberra on October 29

AUS vs IND T20I Series: After a short break from international action, Team India fresh off their Asia Cup 2025 triumph under Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy is all set to return to the field. Following the recently concluded ODI series, the focus now shifts to the shortest format, as India takes on Australia in a five-match T20I series starting October 29 in Canberra.

This highly anticipated series marks India’s first T20 outing since their Asia Cup victory, and fans are eager to see how Suryakumar Yadav’s men perform against one of the strongest T20 sides in the world.

Match Timing and Venue Details

The first IND vs AUS T20I will be played at the Manuka Oval in Canberra. Since the series is being hosted in Australia, the match timings differ from those during the ODI leg. The T20 match will begin at 1:45 PM IST (7:15 PM local time).

During the ODI series, all games began at 9:00 PM IST, but the earlier start for the T20s should provide Indian fans with more convenient viewing hours.

High Expectations from Both Sides

Both teams are entering the series in top form. India, led by Suryakumar Yadav, have been riding a wave of confidence following back-to-back wins and a successful Asia Cup campaign. Meanwhile, Mitchell Marsh’s Australia have been equally impressive, displaying consistency and depth across formats.

With both sides boasting explosive batting line-ups and versatile bowling attacks, the five-match T20 series promises to deliver high-intensity cricket and set the tone for the upcoming T20 World Cup cycle.

Cricket fans can expect fireworks right from the opening clash in Canberra as two of the world’s most dynamic white-ball teams go head-to-head once again.
