Rohit Sharma’s men will look to keep the winning momentum going as they face Australia for their third Super 8 clash of T20 World Cup 2024. Australia had suffered a shocking loss at the hands of Afghanistan in their last game while India had convincingly defeated Bangladesh.
India, who will be looking for their third Super 8 win today, don’t have much to worry about in terms of their team combination. Openers Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, who had looked out of sorts, showed signs of regaining their form against Bangladesh.
Middle-order batsman Shivam Dubey also got some much-needed runs in the last match, while the batting of Rishabh Pant, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya has been India’s main strength in the tournament so far.
Australia, on the other hand, will need to put the Afghanistan defeat behind them as soon as possible if they are to play their best cricket against India. Their recent record against India in ICC matches may also provide some motivation for the beleaguered Kangaroos.

India vs Australia Live: What Indian captain Rohit Sharma said after the match
India vs Australia Live: “Satisfying. We know the opposition and the threat they bring. As a team we did well, kept doing the things we needed to do. Gives us good confidence as a team. 200 is a good score but when you are playing here with wind being a big factor, anything can happen. But I think we used to conditions really well, and it was about individuals doing their job. If was about getting wickets at the right time. (On Kuldeep) We know the strength he has, but we need to use him when necessary. In New York, there were seamer friendly wickets. He had to miss out but we knew he had a big role to play out here. (On semi-final) We don’t want to do anything different, play the same way and understand what each person has to do. Play freely and not think too much on what’s lying ahead. Not think about the opposition. We have been doing it consistently, just need to continue. (On playing England in semi) It will be a nice match, nothing changes for us as a team,” Cricbuzz quoted Indian captain Rohit Sharma as saying after the match.
India vs Australia Live: What Australian captain Mitchell Marsh said after the match
India vs Australia Live: “Disappointing. It happens in the game of cricket. In the course of 40 overs, there are a lot of small margins. India were the better team, Rohit is a class player. (On Head and Maxwell’s batting) Gave us more belief than hope. In a run chase like that if you keep it at 10 an over, we are in the game. India’s bowlers were too good though in the end. Come on, Bangladesh now!” Cricbuzz quoted Australian captain Mitchell Marsh as saying after the match.
