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.
Watch the new episode of Pitch Battle.

His coalition government crumbled when the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist Leninist) withdrew support, forming a new alliance with the Nepali Congress. Former PM Khadga Prasad Oli is poised to take over leadership. Dahal's tenure was marked by instability, requiring five confidence votes.
