AUS vs IND Fantasy Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – 5th T20 Match, India Tour of Australia, 2025

Match Preview

India will look to end its campaign on a high as it takes on Australia for the last match of this tour on Saturday. After going one down in the series, India has staged a remarkable turnaround to win the last two matches, not only to remain alive but also get an unassailable lead.

Much of India’s success has been powered by the strong batting line-up. Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Suryakumar Yadav have all contributed well. However, there are a few concerns like the form of Tilak Varma and Jasprit Bumrah, that the team needs to work on.

Australia will be disappointed that it squandered away the momentum it has built during the ODIs preceding this series. One of the main reasons for the team’s poor run is the unavailability of some of the key players. Nevertheless, the home team has plenty of talented youngsters and will look to save the series.
