India vs Australia 2019, 2nd T20I – Stats Preview

India and Australia will play the second and final T20I of the series at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium (Bengaluru) on this Wednesday (27 February). The visiting side Australia is leading the series by 1-0 after winning the first T20I. On last Sunday (24 February), Australia won the first T20I at Visakhapatnam by three wickets on the final ball of the match.

Now, India must have to win the Bengaluru T20I to save the series. Meanwhile, Australia will win this away T20I series if they avoid a defeat in the Bengaluru T20I. However, the visiting side is looking for another victory to complete whitewash.

Before the Bengaluru T20I, here we are looking at some essential stats preview.
