Predictions
Shubman Gill assumed the leadership of India’s ODI side after Rohit Sharma was dropped and faced Australia in an ODI series down under. Aaron Finch believes his former side can dismantle Gill’s debut as captain by winning this series and spoiling Gill’s debut as captain.
Australia are in a precarious position in this series after suffering consecutive defeats against India in T20Is 3 and 4, but can still claim victory at Brisbane by winning one last T20I match – though that won’t come easily! They need to step up their game if they hope to level the series 1-1 and secure victory there.
India have won their two T20I matches against Australia and are strong favourites to do the same this time around. Their team is balanced well, while their batsmen have shown much promise; they have a good track record at The Gabba and should score more than 180-190 runs during this encounter.
Australians will look to rebound after suffering an embarrassing defeat at Gold Coast. Their T20I record against India is far from impressive and they must find ways to bring in top scorers who can deliver big runs to achieve victory.
Both teams stand a good chance at victory here, although India should prove more formidable with their world-class batting line-up and can score over 270 runs in 50-over matches. Conversely, Australia have struggled recently and must strengthen their batting game to rival that of India’s.
Australia will depend heavily on Mitchell Marsh to lead them to victory, having failed to convert his starts against India so far. For India, Shreyas Iyer stood out against Australia A in recent series matches and should also be watched out for.
