India Tour of Australia 2025: The fifth and final T20I between India and Australia is scheduled for today in Brisbane. Leading the series 2-1, India is now in full swing.

This match will not only decide the series but also provide an opportunity to rotate players before the South Africa series.
The Indian team has played well so far, but has shown some weakness in batting. Therefore, the management is considering some changes.
India Playing XI vs Australia 5th T20I
Some new faces may find a place in India’s probable playing XI. Sanju Samson, who was ruled out after the second match, may be brought back.
Jitesh Sharma scored only 25 runs in the third and fourth matches, so Samson could be given the wicketkeeping duties.
Additionally, Nitish Reddy and Rinku Singh could be given a chance to maintain match fitness. Washington Sundar and Shivam Dubey could be rested.
There is talk of resting Jasprit Bumrah before the South Africa tour. Reports suggest Harshit Rana could replace him. However, some advocate for a clean sweep of the series, with no changes to the winning team.
