India vs Australia Preview
Looking at the second match of the series, few would have predicted the resurgent fightback from Australia to leave the three-match T20i series evenly poised at one game apiece. The visitors were much improved on recent performances and finally looked like a team capable of a match-winning performance, as it proved to be the case. Neither side have a particularly good recent record in T20 cricket, with both sides sitting outside the top four sides in the ICC world rankings. India were dominant throughout the ODI series and looked to be in ominous form when they won the first match comfortably, However, Australia showed the fight and desire to bounce back and take the series into a decider.

India vs Australia Prediction
As we look at the third match of the series in more detail, our betting tips suggest that Australia could cause an upset having played brilliantly in game two to force an unlikely decider. Australia were much improved in all areas in game two and will look to carry that on in the crucial deciding match. India meanwhile, will need to have an honest look at themselves as they try to draw a line and forget what was a bad day at the office all round. The hosts will hope they can get their affairs back in order and clinch a third series win in their last four against Australia. The visitors will be hoping for a repeat of the performance from game two which saw a much-improved effort in levelling the three-match series.
India vs Australia Betting Tips
India were heavily favoured to dominate this series and are still the short price to win this all-important third match, but Australia have all the momentum. They know if they can replicate their performance from game two they can claim a famous series win and go some way to avenging the heavy defeat in the ODI series. Australia performed well in every discipline in the last match and will be keen to carry that on in this, a massive game for both sides. India also play eight more T20 matches in the remainder of the calendar year, and could feasibly finish the year atop the rankings, meaning they would be the top team in all three forms of the game. Australia though are focused on completing the series win and at 5/4 represent great value, given their dominant win in the last game.
Although he is yet to fire in this series, David Warner has been an integral part of this Australian side for some time now, in all forms but especially in T20 cricket. Warner holds his country’s record for most runs in the shortest form and currently sits eighth on the all-time world list. Only his opposite number Virat Kohli is higher on that list and featuring in this series. Warner has led from the front in recent times and always seems to put in a good performance when its needed most. He will know how important his performance will be for his side as they look to complete a first series win in almost a decade against India when a Nathan Bracken-inspired Australia beat the hosts 1-0 at the MCG. Since then, the visitors have managed just one match win in six games before the start of this series.
