Suryakumar Yadav will have to suppress the massive disappointment of an ICC World Cup 2023 final defeat somewhere in the deeper confines of his heart while leading a bunch of 'Gen-Next' stars against a mighty Australian side in a five-match India vs Australia T20I series, starting on Thursday.


The scars of defeat are too deep and it would take time for those wounds to heal. With just around 96 hours of turnaround time from World Cup to the next series, it hardly leaves skipper Yadav with any chance of introspection as he gets ready to play his favourite format.


India's T20I record against Australia


The two cricket giants have faced each other 25 times in the 20-over format, out of which India have won 15 matches against Australia.

The highest total was made by Australia in 2022 in Mohali when they put 211/6 in 19.2 overs on the scoreboard.

India made the lowest total of 74/10 in 17.3 in 2008 against the Aussies in Melbourne.

Ravichandran Ashwin's 4/11 in 3.2 overs in 2014 is still considered as the best bowling figure in the T20Is between the two teams.

Former India skipper MS Dhoni holds the record for most wins as captain. He played 13 T20I matches against Australia and won 9 games against the mighty Aussies.
