India Vs Australia T20 World Cup: Men In Blue Ready To Take On Arch Rival Australia | Pitch Battle

The highly anticipated Super 8 match between India and Australia in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 will take place on June 24 at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in St Lucia at 8 p.m. IST. This match is crucial for India, as a win will keep their unbeaten streak and potentially knock Australia out of the tournament, offering a chance for revenge after Australia's victory in the 2023 ODI World Cup final. On November 19, 2023, Australia defeated India at Narendra Modi Stadium, leaving Indian fans and legends Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in tears. If India wins this match, Australia will be left with two points from three games and will have to rely on Bangladesh defeating Afghanistan to advance to the semifinals. However, Afghanistan is expected to challenge Bangladesh, whose World Cup performance has been poor so far.

T20 World Cup: Afghanistan’s Exceptional Performance help Seal First-ever Win Over Australia

Australia suffered a surprising 21-run loss to Afghanistan, jeopardising their semi-final hopes at the 2024 T20 World Cup. Dropping five catches and struggling in the powerplay, Australia were 32-3 early on and eventually all out for 127 while chasing 149. This loss means Australia may need to rely on net run-rate to advance, even if they win against India in their final Super Eight game. Afghanistan's historic win keeps their own semi-final hopes alive ahead of their match against Bangladesh. With Australia set to face India on June 24, experts discuss what are the prospects of the Men In Blue winning against the Australian Side in this new episode of Pitch Battle. #T20WorldCup #PitchBattle #AfghanistanCricket #HistoricWin #BeatAustralia #CricketVictory #AfghanistanRising #ShockDefeat #AustraliaCricket #SemiFinalHopes #CricketUpset #FirstEverWin #StVincent #CricketThriller #SuperEight #CricketHistory ~PR.152~ED.102~GR.121~HT.96~
