India will look to knockout Australia and seal top spot in Group 1 when the two former champions clash in the eleventh match of the Super Eights of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium in Gros Islet, St Lucia on Monday (June 24).
Rohit Sharma-led India head into the match on the back of a 50-run win over Bangladesh that ensured the their unbeaten streak remained intact. India defended a total of 196 by restricting Bangladesh to 146 to take a lead in the semi-final race.

Mitchell Marsh’s Australia, on the other end, saw their winning streak come to an end at the hands of Afghanistan and now stare at an early exit from the tournament. Australia failed to chase down 149 against Afghanistan, widening Group 1 semi-final qualification race.
Following Australia’s defeat to Afghanistan, the race for one spot is set to go down to the wire should India lose Monday’s game, but a win for the Men in Blue, will leave the 2021 Champions sweating on Bangladesh to beat Rashid Khan’s side to qualify.
