IndiaIndiaIND52/0 (4.5/20 ov) India's brilliant bowling performances, bamboozling Australia with spin, in Hobart and the Gold Coast has turned the series on its head. Josh Hazlewood's stranglehold of India's batters earlier in the series feels like a long time ago as a shorthanded Australia – without frontline players turning their focus to the Ashes – stare down the barrel of a series defeat. Australia can't win the series, but can salvage a draw in the fifth and final T20I at the Gabba. Even though almost all the attention across the country is on the Ashes, meaning scrutiny on this series is minimal, Australia's hierarchy have a few things to ponder ahead of a fast-approaching T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.
