IND vs AUS Match Preview

As this will be the final international fixture prior to the commencement of the World Cup, it is highly probable that the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Hardik Pandya will be reinstated in the playing eleven. With the majority of the players performing well, the team management will be faced with the arduous task of determining which players to exclude.

Shardul Thakur and Shubman Gill have been rested for this concluding ODI. In the case of Shardul Thakur, it is plausible that the management believes he has been afforded ample opportunities and is now contemplating a change in the squad.

Ravichandran Ashwin was the most outstanding bowler for India in the previous match, once again making a compelling argument for his inclusion in the World Cup squad. Shreyas Iyer, who had been grappling with his form due to an injury, scored a remarkable century to announce his return and is likely to retain his position.

Suryakumar Yadav has hit a purple patch at the opportune moment and brings an 'X' factor to the ODI team, rendering him almost indispensable.

Overall, the hosts are currently in a commendable position and will strive to build on their good form. In fact, the Indian team may be the strongest for this match and will provide an indication of the final composition of the team for the World Cup.

Despite possessing a number of quality players, Australia has encountered difficulties in identifying the optimal combination, which is a source of concern for the team management. David Warner has demonstrated a surge in form at a crucial juncture, having scored half-centuries in both of the team's previous matches. It is probable that he will open the batting alongside Mitchell Marsh.

The middle order comprises Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne, both of whom have made promising starts but must convert them into substantial innings. Matthew Short has been afforded a couple of opportunities, but has failed to make an impact. Consequently, he is expected to be replaced by Glenn Maxwell for the upcoming fixture.

This addition augments the dynamism of the Australian middle-order and also provides a spin-bowling option during the middle overs. Given Cameron Green's struggles with both bat and ball, the role of Maxwell assumes even greater significance.

The bowlers have also encountered difficulties in performing to their potential. Spencer Johnson made his ODI debut in the previous match but was unable to secure any wickets. It is possible that he will be replaced by Mitchell Starc. Pat Cummins, Josh Hazlewood, and Sean Abbott are expected to retain their positions, while Adam Zampa will be the sole full-time spinner.

Similar to India, Australia will field its strongest team for this match as well.
