Axar Patel is displaying his magic today as he dismissed dangerous Travis Head, Aaron Hardie and Ben McDermott to derail Australian batting. Ravi Bishnoi is also bowling really well and having close calls with the wickets. 

India spinner Ravi Bishnoi started on a good note as he dismissed Australia opener Josh Philippe is his first ball and this contest is going to be interesting as opener Travis Head looks in explosive form. 

Rinku Singh and Jitesh Sharma powered the troubled Indian team to a fightable score of 174/9 after 20 overs. Australia clinched some crucial wickets in the death overs to restrict Indian batters, who couldn't finish well.

India lost wickets in quick succession as Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav and Ruturaj Gaikwad walked back to the pavilion. Rinku Singh is playing well on the crease and slammed some explosive shots to entertain the viewers. Jitesh Sharma is the new batter on crease. 

Australian pacer Aaron Hardie provided India with first breakthrough as he dismissed young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. India's vice-captain Shreyas Iyer has joined Ruturaj Gaikwad on the crease. 

Indian openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ruturaj Gaikwad began the innings for India while pacer Aaron Hardie and Jason Behrendorff started the attack with the new ball. The openers will look to provide their team with a good start. 

The Ind vs Aus match is set to take place on December 1 at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. This match is the fourth in their five-game T20 series. India will look to win today's match and seal the 5-match series against the World Champions Australia. 

Looking at past encounters, India and Australia have played 29 T20s against each other. India have won 17, Australia 11 and one game didn't have a result. In their last five T20s, India have dominated with four wins to Australia's one. India's overall record has been great against Australia and the Men in Blue have played exceptionally well in the series so far. 

The Raipur stadium, a relatively new venue for international cricket, is known for hosting domestic and IPL matches. The pitch here seems to help bowlers more than batsmen. Out of 29 T20 games played here, only once has a team scored 200 runs. India's batting lineup has showcased some phenomenal skills in the previous three matches and is expected to perform with the same zeal today

Back in January 2023, India and New Zealand played an ODI at this stadium. New Zealand were all out for 108. India won easily by 8 wickets, with Mohammed Shami being named Player of the Match for his impressive 3/18.
