Holding a 2-0 lead, India is on the verge of becoming the most successful T20I team in history.
India is poised to surpass Pakistan’s record for the most T20I victories as the Men in Blue prepare for the third T20I in the five-match series against Australia.
Anticipated to secure their 136th win in this format, India is set to face Australia at Barsapara Stadium on November 28.
Under the leadership of Suryakumar Yadav, India demonstrated remarkable performance in the initial two T20 matches, already holding a 2-0 lead and standing on the brink of becoming the most successful T20I team in history.
Currently tied with Pakistan at 135 wins in 211 games, India has the opportunity to claim the top spot. Pakistan shares the same number of wins but in 226 matches. The Indian cricket team boasts an impressive unbeaten streak of 12 series on their home turf, with their last loss occurring against Australia in February 2019.
Yadav’s captaincy has been instrumental in India’s success in the first two T20I matches against Australia, securing a two-wicket victory in the opening match. In the second game, India dominated with a 44-run win, supported by a formidable batting performance that saw them score 235 runs while losing four wickets. Australia, in response, could only manage 191 runs while losing nine wickets.
The Indian batters showcased impressive performances in both encounters, with Ishan Kishan’s consecutive half-centuries standing out, and Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad significantly contributing to the team’s run count.
Yadav’s dominant display against Australia’s bowling attack in the series’ initial games was notable, and Rinku Singh took charge in the final overs of both matches, delivering a dynamic performance. In the second T20, Rinku achieved an extraordinary feat by scoring 31 runs in just 9 balls, boasting an incredible strike rate of 344.
