Australia will lock horns with India in the second T20I match of the India vs Australia 2020-21 series. The AUS vs IND match is scheduled to begin at 1:40 pm on Sunday, December 6 from the Sydney Cricket Ground. Here is our AUS vs IND Dream11 prediction, AUS vs IND Dream11 team and AUS vs IND Dream11 top picks.
The Men in Blue will return to Sydney with a changed frame of mind. Having defeated the mighty Aussies in back-to-back games now, Kohli and co. will start to truly believe that they can get their hands on the T20I series trophy. After a contentious use of Yuzvendra Chahal as a “like for like” concussion substitute for Jadeja worked out perfectly for them, the selectors will have little reason to leave the spinner out of the side in Sydney. The loss of Jadeja could be a heavy price to pay though and will demand a step up from the top order that has remained inconsistent on this tour.
As in the 1st T20I, the trick for India will be to make quick work of the in-form Australian batsmen – currently their entire top order and a new and renewed Glenn Maxwell. The Aussies have also added veteran spinner, Nathan Lyon, to their side and can be expected to play him in the game on Sunday. A huge concern for the hosts will be the fitness of captain Aaron Finch, who seems to have picked up a niggle during the first T20I, and a potential replacement for him at the top. Marnus Labuschagne may be called up, with Matthew Wade being the best bet for the captaincy if Finch is ruled out.
