IND vs AUS 5th T20I Predicted XIs, Brisbane Pitch Report: India vs Australia H2H T20I Record, Live Streaming Details

India vs Australia 5th T20I Predicted XIs: India will be looking to continue their dominance over Australia when both teams face off in the fifth and final T20I match at the Gabba in Brisbane on Saturday. India are 2-1 ahead in the five-match series after a convincing 48-run win in the previous game.

With an eye on yet another T20I series win against the Aussies, the Men in Blue are expected to go with the same lineup, while speculations continue to surface regarding the possible changes. The inclusion of three spinners has blended perfectly with Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh, while Shivam Dube has provided vital breakthroughs with his change of pace varietals.

Notably, India are yet to field a full-strength lineup as they are without senior all-rounder Hardik Pandya, whereas Kuldeep Yadav returned home in order to prepare for the upcoming Test series against South Africa.

Talking about Australia, the hosts have only ever lost once in the shortest format in Brisbane across eight matches that stretch back to 2006. That loss came against the West Indies in 2013. With Josh Philippe continuing to disappoint despite getting some unexpected opportunities, Australia might opt to include Mitchell Owen as they aim to level the series. Mahli Beardman still has an outside chance of making a debut, but it'll be interesting to see who he could come in for.
