The upcoming India vs Australia T20 World Cup will be a crucial match especially for the Men in Yellow. After suffering a defeat at the hands of Afghanistan recently, team Australia now finds itself in a tricky situation. The India vs Australia T20 World Cup match is now a virtual knock out match for Mitchell Marsh and Co.
India vs Australia a virtual knockout?
Speaking about the current standings in Group 1, team India are comfortably placed on top after winning both of their games so far. However, their semi-final berth is not confirmed as yet. The Men in Blue will need to ensure a win against the Aussies to book their seat. Rohit Sharma and Co. will also need to avoid a heavy defeat against the Aussies so it cannot hamper their net run-rate.
On the other hand, if team Australia loses against India, then their chances of qualifying for the next round will become quite slim as Afghanistan will need to defeat Bangladesh in their next match to become the second team alongside India to qualify for the next round.

On the other hand, team Australia will be giving their all in order to stay alive in the ongoing T20 World Cup.
