India have won the toss and elected to field in the 3rd T20I against Australia at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart. The match is scheduled to begin at 1:45 PM IST / 7:15 PM local time.
This marks a rare toss win for India in limited-overs cricket — the first time they have won a toss in T20Is after a long streak of losses under multiple captains. India last won a toss in an ODI game during the semi-final of the 2023 World Cup. Since then, neither Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul nor Shubman Gill have called the toss right. In fact for Shubman, the new captain has lost 10 of his 11 tosses. Notably, Suryakumar Yadav had also lost the toss in the last two T20Is before this match.
