The most awaited AUS vs IND match at the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 will be played in St. Lucia on June 24.

In the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2024, two heavyweights, Australia and India will face each other in the crucial Super 8 (Group 1) match at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, on June 24.

The Mitchell Marsh-led Australia started their campaign on a perfect note in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. In the group stage, the Aussies played four games and won all of them. The Marsh-led side also finished at top of the Group B with eight points in order to qualify for the next round of the ongoing ICC tournament.

After reaching the Super 8, Australia defeated Bangladesh by 28 runs (DLS Method). In their next outing, the Aussies were outclassed by Afghanistan, as they lost the match by 21 runs.

Meanwhile, the Rohit Sharma-led India had a stunning USA leg in the ongoing global tournament. The Men in Blue won three games out of the four they played. Their final group stage match against Canada in Florida was abandoned due to rain.

India arrived in the Caribbean Islands in style as they notched up two dominant victories over Bangladesh and Afghanistan in the Super 8 (Group 1) of the ongoing global tournament.

As St. Lucia prepares for one of the most awaited match between India and Australia in the T20 World Cup 2024, there are chances of rain playing its part and spoiling all the moods of cricket fans on June 24.
