Australia have won the toss and opted to bowl first against India in T20's Super 8 clash being played at Gros Islet, Saint Lucia on Monday.


Mitchell Marsh confirms Starc is in for Agar. He reckons the pitch "looks a belter" and wants to chase. "We found ourselves in this position a few times, backs to the walls," he says. "At this stage of the tournament, every game's a must-win, pressure comes with that.


" Rohit Sharma also wanted to bowl but is content his side know what they're doing after a convincing tournament so far. "It looks good, hope it doesn't change too much. We have adapted well to conditions, so hopefully, another game where we can do that." India are unchanged from their wins over Afghanistan and Bangladesh.
