Here's the weather forecast for India vs Australia Hyderabad T20

While the Hyderabad cricket fans are hoping for a thrilling T20I showdown at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, rain may dash those hopes.

Hyderabad: Australia are coming to the third T20 against India with a realistic chance to end their otherwise disappointing tour with a Twenty20 series win as David Warner, who captains Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League, and co aim to topple Virat Kohli’s men at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium here on Friday.

While India won the rain-curtailed Ranchi Twenty20 by nine wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the series, Australia outplayed the home team in the second Twenty20 in Guwahati as they won the match by eight wickets after dismantling India for 118.
While both the teams will be gearing up for the series finale, the weather may play spoilsport.

The weather forecast for Friday is not too pleasing if you are a cricket fan as there is a possibility of thunderstorm in the city of Hyderabad. The weather also indicates rain all through the day.
