Team India will look to continue their winning momentum as they will take on Australia in the 3rd T20I match at Guwahati on 28th November 2023. It was a great batting performance by Men in Blue as Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad, and Ishan Kishan scored half-centuries while Suryakumar Yadav and Rinku Singh’s quickfire knocks helped them to post 235 for 4 in 20 overs.
The bowling looked impressive as Ravi Bishnoi and Prasidh Krishna took 3 wickets each. Axar Patel also delivered the goods not allowing the Aussies batters to score runs easily. India eventually won the match by 44 runs and took a 2-0 lead.
On the other hand, Australia struggled with their bowling as Sean Abbott and other bowlers could not stop the run flow. Nathan Ellis was a pick of bowlers picking 3 wickets, but he also went for runs. The batting struggled as Marcus Stoinis and Tim David could put on a decent partnership, but it was a tall ask for Aussies batters.

Pitch Report
The pitch at Basapara Stadium, Guwahati is a belter of pitch to bat on. India and South Africa played the last T20I in 2022 where a total of more than 400 runs were scored as Men in Blue won the match easily.
A total of 3 T20I matches have been played at this venue where the average score is 118. Out of the 3 matches, the team batting first has won once, the team chasing once and 1 ending in no result.
It promises to be another belter of pitch. With dew coming around, the captain that wins the toss would likely field first and then chase down the target.
