The Aussie skipper made a whirlwind start to his campaign in the T20 International Masters League competition with a brilliant hundred with nine sixes in it. He also got a start in the second game but could not convert it into a big one. He also bats at the top of the order.
Upul Tharanga and Hashim Amla have scored over 77 runs in the last few games played at this ground. You can bet on one of the top batters to score over 77 runs in this contest, as it is a high-scoring venue despite a batting collapse in one of the games this season.
In the 9th game of the International Masters League competition being played in India, Australia Masters will take on the hosts, India Masters, on 5th March 2025. This game will be conducted in the evening at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara, from 7.30 PM onwards. This post will peek at the match prediction, pitch report, match preview, and betting tips for this encounter.
The Australia Masters have never played against India Masters in the T20I format. This will be their first encounter.
This contest between India Masters and Australia Masters will be accessible to the Indian cricket audience on TV on Colors Cineplex. Cricket fans can enjoy this fixture via live streaming on the FanCode app and site.
Indian Masters have had a great tournament so far. They have played three games and have won them all. As a result of this terrific performance, they have acquired six points and are sitting on top of the points table with a fantastic net run rate of +3.156.
Indian Masters are going into this game with four wins on the trot. Two of these wins came against England, and one each against South Africa and Sri Lanka. Their last defeat came against the England Masters in 2010.
India Masters played their last game against Sri Lanka Masters. They batted first to raise a massive score of 222 runs for the loss of four wickets. The entire Indian middle order contributed, with players such as Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Stuart Binny, Yuvraj Singh, and Irfan Pathan being among the runs.
Although the Lankan batters made a valiant attempt to chase this target, they regularly lost wickets. Irfan Pathan was the best bowler, with three wickets for 39 runs. Dhawal Kulkarni, Abhimanyu Mithun, and Vinay Kumar each picked up two wickets.
The Aussie Masters have not made a promising start to the competition. They have played two games and have lost both. As a result of this dismal showing, they are in fourth position in the point table. However, they have the best net run rate among the last three teams that have failed to register a win.
They are going into this game after three consecutive defeats against New Zealand, West Indies, and Sri Lanka Masters. Their last win in this format came in 2009 against Pakistan's PCA XI team.
In their last game in the competition against Sri Lanka Masters, the Australian batting was once again up to the scratch putting together 217 runs for the loss of four wickets. Shaun Marsh, Ben Dunk, and Dan Christian ensured the Aussies recorded a big target for the Lankan chase.
But the Aussie bowling attack let them down again. It was put to the sword by the Lankan batters. Ben Laughlin was the best of the bowlers with three for 35 from his four overs. He was supported by Dan Cristian who picked up two wickets.
Both games played at the BCA ground in Vadodara in this Masters League competition have been won by the teams chasing a target. So, it might be better for the skipper to win the toss to field first and chase a known target, as the pitch is likely to remain firm throughout the game.
The surface at the BCA Stadium will gradually slow down as the game progresses. Batting will become easier in the second innings. Overall, the conditions at the venue will favor the batters. Spinners are more likely to enjoy the conditions here.
You can expect clear skies for this contest, and the temperatures during the game will be close to 16 degrees.
These two teams have had contrasting fortunes in this competition. Indians are doing a fabulous job. They have won all three games so far while the Aussies have lost both. But the Aussie batting was in good stead in both their losses. So, even though Indians start as clear favorites, the Aussies have the batting to surprise them. Overall, we reckon India Masters will start as favorites to win this contest and stretch their lead at the top.
Bet on India Masters to win.
