India are ready for their upcoming Australia tour, where they will play a three-match ODI series and then a five-match T20I series. Suryakumar Yadav is in the T20I squad, where he will continue his leadership of the Men in Blues. The ODI series will begin on October 19, and the T20I series will start on October 29. 

Suryakumar Yadav-led India in great form, but SKY as a batter struggling

It will be India's first T20I action after winning the Asia Cup 2025 as the unbeaten side, where they defeated arch-rivals Pakistan three times, including the Final of the tournament. SKY has taken the official Indian T20I leadership responsibility (excluding captaining the Indian team in the absence of any regular Indian captain) after India won the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024 title under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. As a regular T20I captain, Suryakumar Yadav has suffered only two defeats, while winning 18 T20Is and tying twice. In his overall T20I captaincy, SKY has lost only four games, while winning 23 times out of 29 games (excluding Super Over results). 

However, Suryakumar's recent batting form is a big concern, as the right-handed batter scored 0, 5, 12, and 1 runs, respectively, in the last four T20Is. After scoring 75 runs against Bangladesh at Hyderabad in October 2024, he has played only one 25+ knock in the T20I, which was 47 not out against Pakistan in the group stage fixture in the Asia Cup 2025.
