India eye series win at Indore

Indore ODI
India play Australia in the 3rd ODI on Sunday
India is set to play Australia in the 3rd ODI at Indore. India will be eyeing a third straight win in the ODI series.

Date and Time : 24th September 2017, 1:30 PM IST

Venue : Holkar Stadium, Indore

Australia haven’t been able to win a single ODI so far in the series and they will look to change this on Sunday.

India have batted quite well thus far amassing scores of 250+ twice. Whereas Australia have not been able to bat that well.

Hilton Cartwright hasn’t lived up to expectations so far and Australia might be tempted to push him down the order.

Though Australia will be pleased with their bowlers. Nathan Coulter-Nile have been the standout bowler so far for them.

India have been on a roll in recent times and every player is ready to contribute to the team resulting in their success.


Team news and possible line-ups

Aaron Finch is likely to return to the Australian playing XI. He will replace Hilton Cartwright on top of the order.

Peter Handscomb is also likely return to the team. He might replace Matthew Wade, who is not having such a good time.

As for India, they will probably play the same XI. Although Manish Pandey has failed in this series so far but will likely retain his place.

The bowling attack will remain the same in this game as well.

Australia XI : Smith (C), Warner, Finch, Head, Maxwell, Stoinis, Wade, Coulter-Nile, Cummins, Agar, Richardson.

India XI : Kohli (C), Rohit, Rahane, M. Pandey, Jadhav, Dhoni (WK), Pandya, B. Kumar, K. Yadav, Bumrah, Chahal.

Prediction

Given team India’s recent form, they go into this game as the favorites. But world champions Australia can make a comeback at any time. I expect India to win this game and the series.
