India vs Australia Team Preview

India

India struggled in the second ODI and will need to find a method to stop Mitchell Starc in this encounter. They do, however, have a plethora of outstanding players and should have enough talent to win.

After their victory in the opening ODI of the series, the Indians made one alteration to their lineup for the second ODI. Shardul Thakur was replaced by Axar Patel. Suryakumar Yadav has been removed for consecutive golden ducks in the series, but we believe he will keep his spot.

Australia

After returning to the Test and ODI series, Australia has shown a lot of character on this tour. To win the series, they must put on another strong performance in this match.

Australia made two changes before the second ODI, with Glen Maxwell and Josh Inglis replaced by Alex Carey and Nathan Ellis. No chances will be taken with Maxwell’s fitness, and Ellis may get another chance in this final game.

MA Chidambaram Stadium Chennai

In the series, both teams have won the toss and gone on to win a match after opting to field first. If the skippers win the toss, we believe they will choose to field first in this match.

The prediction calls for a very humid afternoon and evening in Chennai, although rain showers in the area are expected to miss the games.

The surface in Chennai always helps spinners, but with the overhead conditions, we expect pace bowlers to enjoy bowling in this game as well. An average score will be 250 or higher.
