After conceding the ODI series 1-2, Team India bounced back emphatically to clinch the three-T20I series against Australia.

The Virat Kohli-led side won the first and second T20I by 11 runs and 6 wickets respectively to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. It was India’s third successive victory on this tour, including the one in the final ODI.

Considering that all the momentum is with India, former pacer Ashish Nehra believes it will surely have an impact on the much-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy, starting December 17.

"Australia were making big totals in the ODI series, so the T20I series win will surely have an impact on the Test series, however, little it might be. Yes, different players are playing this series but it will make a difference to players mentally if not anything," Nehra said in a video uploaded by Cricbuzz.

According to Nehra, India’s focus should be on whitewashing Australia and hence the bowlers should not be rested.

"There is no need to rest any of the bowlers as they are not on the Test side be it Sundar, Natarajan, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, or Yuzvenvdra Chahal. Except for Manish Pandey, there can be no possible change, perhaps Virat Kohli can take rest himself and Pandey can be picked in place of him with KL Rahul as the captain but nothing else," he remarked.

The third and final T20I will be played in Sydney on Tuesday (December 8).
