1. Captain Suryakumar forgot the playing-11 at the time of toss.
The toss of the fourth T20 between India and Australia took place at 6:30 pm in Raipur. Australia won the toss and chose bowling and their captain Matthew Wade announced 5 changes to the team. When the commentator asked Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav about the team, he forgot the name of the player.

Surya said, 'There are 4 changes in the team, Deepak Chahar in place of Prasidh Krishna, Mukesh Kumar in place of Arshdeep Singh, Shreyas Iyer in place of Tilak Verma. Don't remember the last change. The fourth change in the team was in the form of wicketkeeper Jitesh Sharma, who replaced Ishan Kishan.

2. Green dropped the catch, the umpire was hit by the ball.
Chris Green, who made his T20 debut for Australia, dropped an easy catch in the 15th over. Green bowled a full toss on the third ball of the over, Jitesh Sharma played a sharp shot in front. The ball hit Green's hand directly but he could not catch it. After hitting Green's hand, the ball also hit the umpire at the non-striker's end. The umpire looked as if he was fielding in his defence. The matter of relief was that after hitting Green's hand, the speed of the ball had reduced and the umpire was not seriously injured.

At the time of Jeevan Daan, Jitesh was batting after scoring only 9 runs. He played an inning of 35 runs and took the team beyond 165 runs.

3. Australia lost review in the first over of the match
The first over of the match was bowled by fast bowler Aaron Hardy for Australia. He got the first 5 balls of the over dotted in front of Yashasvi Jaiswal. The sixth ball also hit Yashasvi's pads and the over was maidened. Here Australia appealed for LBW, but the umpire gave the decision of not out.

Kangaroo captain Matthew Wade took a review, and replays showed that the ball was hitting outside the leg stump. Therefore the batsman cannot be declared LBW. Yashasvi remained not out and Australia lost its review in the very first over.

4. Rinku hits a six of 100 meters
Left hand batsman Rinku Singh, who is emerging as the new finisher for Team India, hit a 100 meter long six. The last ball of the 13th over was bowled by Ben Dwarshus on a good length, Rinku came forward and hit a six over mid-wicket. The connection of the bat with the ball was so sweet that the ball went to the spectators 100 meters away.

Rinku's 100 meter long six was the longest six of this series. He broke the record of Ishan Kishan, who had hit a six of 95 meters in the second T20. Rinku also hit an 88 meter long six with reverse sweep in the fourth T20.

5. Bishnoi got a wicket on the first ball
Team India's leg spinner Ravi Bishnoi looked in great form throughout the series. Even in the fourth T20, he brought success to India by taking a wicket on the very first ball of his spell. Bishnoi bowled the very first ball of the fourth over at a fuller length. Josh Philippe went to sweep but was bowled.

With Phillip's wicket, Team India broke Australia's 40-run opening partnership and put pressure on the Kangaroos. Bishnoi took only one wicket in his 4 over spell, but for this he spent only 17 runs. He is also the top wicket taker of the series with 7 wickets.

6. McDermott survived 3 times in DRS
Australia's Ben McDermott was saved from getting out thrice, he got the support of DRS all three times. Coincidentally, Ravi Bishnoi was bowling all three times. McDermott avoided getting out thrice on Bishnoi's ball and finally got bowled on Axar Patel's ball. He scored 19 runs on 22 balls.

  • The last ball of the fourth over, Bishnoi bowled a googly on good length. McDermott went to defend but the ball hit his pads. India appealed but the umpire declared it not out. Team India took a review and due to umpire's call in the replay, the batsman remained not out.
  • Bishnoi again bowled the googly on the last ball of the sixth over. McDermott went to play a sweep shot but then the ball hit his pads. Indian players appealed for LBW but the umpire again gave the decision of not out. Captain Suryakumar took a review, McDermott was saved once again due to the umpire's call in the replay.
  • Bishnoi bowled the third ball of the 11th over with a googly on the off stump. McDermott swept and the ball again hit his pads. India appealed and this time the umpire declared the batsman LBW. When Australia took a review, it was found in the replay that the ball was going missing the leg stump. The umpire reversed his decision and the batsman remained not out.
