Hello cricket fans! Get ready for an exciting battle as India and Australia face off in the fourth T20 international at the Gold Coast Stadium in Carrara. This series is wide open with both teams eager to grab the lead. India made it 1-1 after a stunning five-wicket win in Hobart, while the first match washed out and Australia took an early advantage in Melbourne. India has chosen to stick with their winning team from Hobart. The Indian XI includes star players like Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, and captain Suryakumar Yadav. "Don’t break up a winning combination," seems to be the motto as India aims to keep their momentum going. Australia, on the other hand, has made four changes. Big names Travis Head and Sean Abbott have left the squad to prepare for the Ashes, which is just weeks away. Matt Short moves up the order, Glenn Maxwell returns in the middle, and Josh Philippe, Ben Dwarshuis, and Adam Zampa come into the XI. This fresh lineup shows Australia is ready to shake things up! The toss was won by Australia captain Mitchell Marsh, who decided to bowl first on this less familiar Gold Coast pitch. Although this is only the third men's international at this venue, Australia is comfortable bowling first wherever they play. Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav said the ground feels a lot like conditions in India. "We would have batted first even if we had won the toss," he said, clearly excited about the big ground with plenty of space to hit boundaries. The match started with plenty of drama! In the opening over, the first ball saw a dropped catch by Xavier Bartlett, giving India’s opener Abhishek Sharma a lucky start. Sharma then wasted no time showing off his trademark blazing batting style. The atmosphere is buzzing as this cricket thriller unfolds. The first ball was bowled at 6:15 pm local time (1:45 pm IST), and fans can expect fierce competition and thrilling moments. Stay tuned as India looks to continue their winning streak and Australia tries to roar back with their new energy. Who will take the lead in this gripping series? Only the night will tell!
