India play Australia in their final Super 8 clash in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup on Monday (June 24) morning in Saint Lucia. Not often is that the match against Australia is a dead rubber for India, but it is the case this time, however, there will be revenge in the Men in Blue's mind for that loss on November 19. Obviously, nothing can fill the hurt and the void of that defeat but knocking Australia out of an ICC event that too in a World Cup might just be a similar response, if not equal.
Australia had their campaign in jeopardy after a 21-run loss to Afghanistan and are required to beat India with a decent margin to avoid any mishap, if Rashid Khan and his boys do hammer Bangladesh in their final Group 1 match. Australia are likely to bring back their ace pacer Mitchell Starc and would be throwing kitchen sink at India since their qualification is on the line. A loss or a washout could potentially end their campaign as they would have to depend on the result of the Afghanistan-Bangladesh match.
