IND vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis
Team India is slowly but surely getting all their bases covered right before the World Cup at home. They have just handed Australia a brutal thrashing in the second ODI at Indore to clinch the series 2-0 with one game left. What’s more impressive about this series win is that it came without many of their regular players. Meanwhile, Australia have plenty of questions to answer. They have now lost five ODIs in a row and need to get things in order quickly as the World Cup is now just a couple of weeks away.

TEAMS PREVIEW
India Preview
India couldn’t have asked for a better start leading to the World Cup. They just won the Asia Cup last week and have now beaten Australia at home with a second-string side. More importantly, with every game, they have checked off one key box or another.
In the second ODI at Indore, they blasted 399-5 courtesy of brilliant centuries from Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer, and a whirlwind unbeaten 72 off 37 balls by Suryakumar Yadav. A superb bowling display then saw them bowl Australia out for 217 and win the match by 99 runs (DLS method).
For the third ODI, regular captain Rohit Sharma will be back along with Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, and Kuldeep Yadav, and all of them are expected to be drafted into the main eleven as this will be the final international match for them before the World Cup. News has come in that Shubman Gill and Shardul Thakur will be rested to for this match.
Rohit and Kohli are both in great form and have an excellent record against Australia. We are expecting one of these two to go on and get a big score.
Ravichandran Ashwin, who was India’s best bowler last night with 3-41 from 7 overs, should also feature in the eleven. Ashwin bowling in tandem with the in-form Kuldeep Yadav will be quite a sight to see.
This will be another flat track, so the faster bowlers are likely to leak runs.
India Predicted Playing XI:
Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah

Australia Preview
Australia have been struggling to get going in the ODI format of late. Their main worry is the regular middle-order collapses. Even in the second ODI against India, they collapsed from 89-2 to 140-8, before the tail-enders rescued them a bit.
While they don’t need to hit the panic button yet, the team management would like some solid contributions from Steven Smith, Alex Carey, and Cameron Green in the final ODI. They haven’t been consistent for a while, and a good knock in Indian conditions would really help them. Glenn Maxwell is expected to return for the final match. It will be interesting to see how well he does.
Opener David Warner has looked good and has hit two back-to-back fifties before being dismissed tamely. We are expecting another handy knock from him. With Mitchell Marsh and him at the start, we can expect some fireworks on this batting beauty of a wicket.
On the bowling front, leg-spinner Adam Zampa has been consistent with his lines as always. Josh Hazlewood, too, managed to hold his own on that flat wicket in the second ODI. For the final game, Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc will likely be added to the playing eleven too, which will give their bowling attack a much-needed boost.
Australia Predicted Playing XI:
Mitchell Marsh, David Warner, Steven Smith, Glenn Maxwell, Marnus Labuschagne, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey (wk), Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins (c), Mitchell Starc

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The pitch at the Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground is typically flat. The ball comes on nicely to the bat for the first half of the innings, and there are runs for the taking. By the middle overs, the pitch will slow down a little and the ball is expected to grip the surface a little. This is where the spinners will come on. However, that shouldn’t last long, and batters should get their chance to flex their muscles by the death overs.
The weather in Rajkot will be a little cloudy, but mostly hot and humid.
IND vs AUS Pitch Report
The average score batting first at the Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground is 274. The highest total posted here is 414-7 by India against Sri Lanka in 2009. This is another high-scoring venue, and another huge 300-plus total by the team batting first is very much on the cards.
Toss: To Bat
It will be a hot and humid day and the pitch is likely to be a batter’s paradise. Thus, the team winning the toss will certainly look to bat first and post a huge total on the board. Neither captain would like their bowlers and fielders to get burned out in this sapping heat.
IND vs AUS
Winning Prediction
For the third and final ODI between India and Australia, both teams are expected to be at near full strength. India will be on a high and will start as favorites for the game. You can, however, never count Australia out. We are expecting them to put up a much stiffer fight in the last match. The two losses here would have certainly hurt them, and their main players would be itching to display their mettle. The flat pitch here would allow their batters to flex their muscles, particularly the likes of Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell. However, India looks like the more sorted side, going by overall strength and balance. Their batting unit is in crazy good form right now, and it might be too difficult for even the regular Aussie bowling attack to stop them.
Back India to make it 3-0.
