India vs Australia 2023, 3rd ODI – Dafanews Match Preview

India will be up against Australia in the final dress rehearsal before their high-octane World Cup clash. India is currently enjoying a 2-0 lead and has dominated Australia even without players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Mohammed Siraj, Hardik Pandya, and Kuldeep Yadav in the XI.

The likes of Suryakumar Yadav, Mohammed Shami, and Shreyas Iyer have stepped up and India could not have been happier with their bench strength also flexing their muscles. We look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

Current form for India: W W W L W

India has ticked the right boxes with bat and ball but fielding remains a concern for the team. The hosts will aim to continue their good show and enter the World Cup high on confidence. Team India will aim to once again come up with a collective effort.

Current form for Australia: L L L L L

It is not often that Australia lose five matches on the bounce and thus they will be looking to turn the tables before the all-important World Cup. The Aussies have come up with mundane performances in the first two matches and they will look to deliver in the final game.

Head to Head: Matches: 148, Won by Australia: 82, Won by India: 56, NR: 10.

Australia clearly holds the advantage against India in the H2H battle.

Players to look out for: KL Rahul, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli Ishan Kishan, and Mohammed Siraj will hold the key for Team India.

David Warner, Alex Carey, Mitchell Marsh, Cameron Green Pat Cummins, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, and Glenn Maxwell will be the key players for the visitors.

Australia squad: Pat Cummins (c), Sean Abbott, Alex Carey, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Josh Hazlewood, Josh Inglis, Spencer Johnson, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Tanveer Sangha, Matt Short, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, David Warner, Adam Zampa
