AUS vs WI: Australia will lock horns against West Indies in the 1st T20I of the West Indies tour of Australia, 2022 on Wednesday, October 5, 2022, at Carrara Oval, Queensland.

Australia will be playing their final bilateral series against West Indies before the focus shifts to T20 World Cup 2022. They are heading into this series on the back of a series loss against India. However, with the return of the senior players like Mitchell Starc and David Warner, Australia will fancy their chances of winning this clash.

As for West Indies, they have had a tough time in the shortest format in recent times and must be looking to return to their old dominant form ahead of the World Cup. They will be without the services of the star batter Shimron Hetmyer. Shamarh Brook has been drafted in as his replacement. 

Talking about their head-to-head record, the two teams faced each other 17 times in T20Is so far, out of which West Indies won 10 while Australia has seven wins under their belt. All in all, with some of the most talented T20 players taking out the swords against each other, a cracking game beckons in Queensland.

Here are the match details, pitch report, probable playing 11, squads, player records/stats and dream11 fantasy team predictions for the 1st T20I of the West Indies tour of Australia, 2022.
