The ongoing five-match T20I series between India and Australia has now reached a thrilling stage with both teams tied at 1-1 with one match abandoned. The Indian team, captained by Suryakumar Yadav, leveled the series with a resounding victory in the third match. Now after winning the third match, the fourth T20I between the two teams will be played on November 6, 2025, which is going to be held at a new venue, Carrara Oval Stadium in Queensland.

After the first game in Canberra was washed out, Australia took a 1-0 lead after winning the second in Melbourne by four wickets. They chased down a 126-run target in 13.2 overs on a spicy track after Josh Hazlewood bowled a brilliant spell with the new ball.

India bounced back commendably in the third T20I in Hobart to restore parity in the series. They made light work of a 187-run target, reaching the score in just 18.3 overs, with five wickets to spare. Washington Sundar played a blinder of an innings after Arshdeep Singh's exemplary three-for on his comeback.

The team that wins the fourth T20I, will ensure they do not lose the series. Consequently, both India and Australia are expected to put in all their efforts to win the fourth match.

India vs Australia 4th T20I Match Prediction

India have the upper hand heading into the fourth T20I after a confident run chase in Hobart. Their batting depth and form in the middle order make them slight favourites to take a 2-1 series lead. Australia remain dangerous at home but will miss key players like Travis Head and Josh Hazlewood, which could tilt the contest in India’s favour.

The Indian Women's Cricket team has seen remarkable growth in recent years, with two runners-up positions at the ODI World Cup to their credit to go with their recent triumph at the ICC Women's World Cup 2025. The new-age Indian players like Smriti Mandhana, Jemimah Rodrigues, and Shafali Verma are taking Indian women's cricket to the next level, with Harmanpreet Kaur leading the team calmly. 

As India lift their maiden ICC Women's World Cup in Navi Mumbai, beating South Africa by 52 runs, we present you with the Indian cricket team's performance in every ICC Women's World Cup edition.

India Women's Cricket Team's journey in the ODI World Cup began in 1978. They did not participate in the first edition in 1973 before playing in the second edition. India crashed out at the group stage in 1978 as well as 1982 and did not participate in 1988.

In the 1993 edition, India made a group stage exit once again before finally progressing to the semifinals in 1997, when they hosted the tournament. India made it to the semifinal in 2000, too.

In 2005, the Indian Women's Cricket Team qualified for the final of the World Cup for the first time but ultimately lost the title-decider. Their campaign ended at the Super 6s stage in 2009 before they crashed out at the group stage in 2013.

In 2017, they faced heartbreak after losing to England final, despite being really close to lifting the trophy.

Four years later, India qualified for the final once again but lost the match against England. In 2022, India made a group stage exit.

But, finally, on their home soil in 2025, they defeated South Africa in the final in Navi Mumbai to lift their maiden ICC Women's World Cup. Harmanpreet Kaur became the first Indian woman captain to lift an ICC trophy.

India Women vs South Africa Women Final Match Prediction

If we look at the team strength and head-to-head record, India Women are the clear favorite in the Final match of the ICC Women's World Cup 2025.

After a long time, we are going to witness new World Champions in Women’s Cricket.

The second T20I of the India vs Australia series will be played on October 31st at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Australia. The match will begin at 1:45 PM IST.

Both teams will be aiming to take a lead in the series in the Melbourne match. The hosts Australia will be looking to continue their winning run and clinch the T20I series after 2-1 win in the ODI series. On the other hand, the number one T20I side India will be aiming to continue their dominance in the shorter format and stun the Aussies in the second T20I.

India vs Australia Match Prediction

India’s form and squad depth make them the stronger side going into this contest. Their batting lineup can handle any surface, and Bumrah’s bowling leadership adds potency. Australia’s inexperience in the bowling department could prove costly against India’s aggression.

Following a defeat in the three-match ODI series against Australia, Team India will look to be at their best under Suryakumar Yadav’s captaincy in the five-match T20I series. The opening T20I will be played on October 29 at Manuka Oval and the Men in Blue will look to beat the hosts and start the series on the winning track. The current T20 World Cup champions looked in amazing touch in the Asia Cup 2025 and they will be expected to do the same in the series Down Under as well.
