IND vs AUS Dream11 Prediction

IND vs AUS Match Preview

India's batting appears to be in exceptional form. Despite the absence of two key players, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, the batting lineup demonstrated enough strength to comfortably achieve the target of 277 runs. Shubhman Gill has continued his impressive performance, scoring four half-centuries in his last six innings.

Gill found a capable opening partner in Ruturaj Gaikwad, resulting in a remarkable 142-run partnership for the first wicket. KL Rahul, who came in at number 4, provided stability to the team.

The team management will be pleased to witness Suryakumar Yadav's first half-century in One Day Internationals (ODIs) after 25 matches.

However, Shreyas Iyer's performance has been lackluster, and he will need to enhance his game if he wishes to secure a spot in the World Cup squad.

Moving on to the bowling department, Mohammed Shami delivered an outstanding spell, taking five wickets, with excellent support from Jasprit Bumrah. Ravichandran Ashwin, despite playing his first ODI in nearly 20 months, bowled with precision. It is anticipated that there will be some alterations in the bowling lineup, with Prasiddh Krishna potentially being given an opportunity and Bumrah possibly being rested.

Furthermore, Washington Sundar is likely to be included in the playing XI, but whether he replaces R Ashwin or Ravindra Jadeja remains uncertain.

Despite the return of several key players who had been struggling with injuries, the visiting team was unable to achieve a substantial score on a favorable batting surface, which is a cause for concern. Although Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, and Josh Inglis made promising starts, they were unable to convert them into significant innings.

The team has been without the services of Glenn Maxwell, but it is anticipated that he will return by Sunday, which will bolster the middle order. Additionally, the team is expected to retain the services of all-rounders Marcus Stoinis and Matthew Short, as they offer a great deal of versatility.

Pat Cummins will lead the pace attack alongside Sean Abbott, while Adam Zampa remains the sole full-time spinner.

Australia has opted to prioritize batting depth at the expense of its bowling unit. However, players such as Stoinis and Green may struggle in India, where pitches can be quite flat. The team's balance may require further consideration for this match and the upcoming World Cup.
