India Face Australia in Hobart as Hosts Seek to Extend 1–0 T20I Lead

Australia hold the advantage after the MCG win, with Josh Hazlewood unavailable and Nathan Ellis poised for a larger pace role.

Overview

  • The third T20I is on Sunday, November 2 at Bellerive Oval, Hobart, starting at 1:45 PM IST.
  • Live coverage in India will air on Star Sports with streaming on the JioHotstar app and website.
  • Australia lead 1–0 after restricting India to 125 and winning by four wickets at the MCG, where Josh Hazlewood took 3/13 and Mitchell Marsh top-scored with 46.
  • Hazlewood is out of the upcoming T20Is, and Ellis is expected to spearhead the hosts’ pace attack.
