Team India begins their long tour of Australia with a Twenty20 International in the three-match series at the Gabba on November 21 (Wednesday).
Meanwhile, the men in blues have won four of six games they have played in Australia to date including the last T20I series played in Australia in 2016. India, who want to make a mark this time around in Australia, will look to begin well. As it is, the challenge could be a tough one on the fast and bouncy pitch at the Gabba, which India vice-captain Rohit Sharma considers as the fastest in Australia.

India have enough quality and depth in the side and form too behind them to give Australia a strong challenge in their own backyard.
Weather Forecast
It was cloudy and breezy when India arrived at the Gabba for their first practice session. But it is likely to be hot and humid on Wednesday. The traditionally bouncy wicket at the Gabba is expected to test the batsmen from both sides.
Furthermore, there are chances of rain throughout the match which can reduce the game time.
