Australia vs India Prediction: Travis Head and Kuldeep Yadav have been released from their respective teams ahead of the fourth T20I.
Team India had a dominating performance in the third T20I in Hobart, and they recorded a 5-wicket win to level the series. That has added more spice to the team as two matches are left to play. The fourth T20I will be live from Carrara Oval in Queensland on November 6 (Thursday) at 1:45 PM IST. Australian bowling without Josh Hazlewood suffered a hammering from India. Nathan Ellis looked in good touch, but other bowlers couldn't contain the Indian batters.
Hence, we can see some changes to the playing XI for Australia ahead of the fourth game. Travis Head has been released to prepare for the Ashes series. As a result, we might see Glenn Maxwell and Adam Zampa coming into the playing XI. For India, Kuldeep Yadav has been released ahead of the home test series against South Africa. The return of Arshdeep Singh led India to win, and the visitors might stick with the same combination.

AUS vs IND: Probable Best Batter
India: Abhishek Sharma has been at the top of the rankings for a while now; it is because of the success he is getting with the bat. He will be India's most dangerous batter in this game.
Australia: Tim David played an incredible innings in Hobart. He was hitting some of the biggest sixes with ease. He put pressure on Indian bowlers and will be keen to replicate that.
AUS vs IND: Probable Best Bowler
India: Arshdeep Singh's return made the difference for India. He took three big wickets and helped India restrict the hosts to a chaseable total.
Australia: Nathan Ellis showed great variations in Hobart. He bowled slower balls and pace-on delivery to surprise the batters. He will be the one to watch out for his team.
Australia vs India Today’s Match Prediction: Team India have the momentum on their side, and they looked like a great batting side in Hobart. Australia will miss the wicket-taking ability of Hazlewood on these pitches again. But Adam Zampa is one bowler that will be challenging for the Indian middle order. Glenn Maxwell can be another player that India should worry about.
But if we look at the two sides, India have a clear advantage. Arshdeep and Jasprit are the two best bowlers in this format, and then there's the mystery spin of Varun Chakravarthy. Though India can suffer with the other two bowling options, overall they are better than Australia on the basis of the current two squads.
