India vs Australia 1st T20 Highlights: Australia made a positive start in the three-match T20I series against India, winning the series opener by four wickets in Mohali on Tuesday evening. Cameron Green and Matthew Wade were the standout players from the Australian camp. The proceedings started with Australia captain Aaron Finch winning the toss and inviting India to bat first. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli failed to make an impact and departed cheaply. However, KL Rahul continued his rich form. After smashing a fifty against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup, the right-handed batter once again hit a 50-plus score. Suryakumar Yadav also chipped in with a crucial 25-ball 46. Hardik Pandya then closed the innings in some style, smashing a hattrick of sixes to help India reach 208/6 in 20 overs. Australia in response got off to a strong start with Finch and Green dealing in fours. However, Finch departed for 22(13) but Green continued the show with Steve Smith. The pair added a 50-plus stand and took the game away from India until the 10th over. India bounced back right after the halfway stage, with Axar Patel and Umesh Yadav leading the fightback. The spinner scalped three wickets in his four-over quota, while Yadav, who started on an expensive note, scalped two wickets in his return spell. However, a crucial partnership between Green and Tim David took the game away from the hosts. Green smashed 61 off 30 balls, while Wade returned unbeaten on 45 off 21 balls.

IND vs AUS LIVE score: Last World Cup for Davey, Finchy?
Matthew Hayden just dropped a big bomb. The former Australia opener just said that for David Warner, Aaron Finch and a couple of other Aussie stars, the upcoming T20 World Cup might be their last World Cup. Surely, he must be talking about the last T20 World Cup, since the 50-over World Cup is also approximately a year from now.

While the Indian top-order looks pretty much sorted, the management are still having a tough time deciding between Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik in the playing eleven.
Now with Ravindra Jadeja injured, the absence of left-handed batters have made the decision much harder.
Both the players got chances at the Asia Cup and it will be interesting to see, who the management sticks with in the T20Is against Australia.

India did have a decent outing with the bat at Asia Cup, but they did make a lot of changes in their playing XI. Their depth in bowling was also exposed with Bhuvneshwar Kumar leaking runs in both the 19th over against Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
Now with the return of Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah, it will bolster India's bowling attack.
