Australia takes on India in the first ODI to kick start their home summer in the Ind vs Aus series. It will also be the first international assignment for Team India since the COVID-19 outbreak.
Match Timings: Nov 27, 9:10 AM Team Preview Team India will face Australia in the opening ODI to start their long tour featuring T20s and Tests. After completing the quarantine, India started the training, but they haven’t played any warmup, and it will be their first competitive affair since March. Indian players have played two-month long Indian T20 League in UEA, so it won’t interrupt their preparation. It will also be the first series for Men in Blue in ICC’s new CWC Super League. India doesn’t need to gain points from this series as they have already qualified for the World Cup being the hosts. In the absence of Rohit Sharma, Mayank Agrawal will open for India with in-form Shikhar Dhawan. The duo had good numbers in Indian T20 League for their respective sides. The middle-order will be boosted by Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul. Hardik Pandya will play as a proper batsman, and it might create a problem for Kohli to fill the 5th bowling option. He can go with an extra seamer to complete this spot, and Navdeep Saini can get the nod in playing XI. Jadeja would take advantage over Kuldeep Yadav in the final XI. Chahal will also have a big responsibility in middle-overs. On the other hand, the Aussies would go ahead with the same winning XI who played against England in September. Most of the Australian players had participated in the Indian T20 League. Warner and Stoinis both had a good season with the bat. Smith was in decent touch for Rajasthan, but Maxwell’s form might be a worrying sign for Punjab. Maxwell can adapt to the condition on an international level. He guided Australia to a remarkable chase in the last ODI fixture against England with Alex Carey. Australia defeated England in their last ODI series and earned points for Super League. Marnus Labuschagne was in good touch on the South Africa tour, and he would be a key player in the middle-order. Adam Zampa had good success against India, and he would be a significant threat in middle-overs. The pace trio Cummins, Starc, and Hazlewood would also trouble Indian batsmen. It should be a cracking contest between Indian batting and Aussies’ bowling. The hosts are favourites on Friday as they are used to the conditions, and their formidable bowling attack can stun the Indian batting lineup. Pitch Report Sydney Cricket Ground is a fine batting track, and it offers a good balance between bat and ball. Pacers can take help from the bounce, and spinners can also find assistance in middle-overs. We expect an imposing score of around 270 and 280. Possible XI Australia David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Adam Zampa India Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal, Virat Kohli (C), Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd.
