India and Australia square off in the final ODI of the series after high-scoring matches in Sydney. Australia has taken a 2-0 unassailable lead in the three-matches series.
Team Preview
Australia will face Team India in the third ODI of the series with an eye for the clean sweep in the three-matches ODI series. The finch-led side showed dominance in Sydney to outperform Men In Blue. Smith scored 62-balls hundred in both matches, and India failed to chase despite scoring 300 in both matches.
Kohli’s troops have reached Canberra to change their fortune. They would avoid another clean sweep this year as Team India recently suffered a 3-0 defeat against New Zealand Down Under. It will be the second time in history when India will receive a clean sweep in a three-matches ODI series if Australia wins the last ODI on Wednesday.
India is not picking wickets in the powerplay, and they are conceding runs at 10 runs per over in flag-overs. From 31-50, Australia is scoring 200 runs, which creates a boost to the final score. Pandya bowled four overs in the last outing, but he is not fully fit for bowling due to his last year’s injury.
Kuldeep Yadav can earn a place in the XI, replacing Yuzvendra Chahal. Mayank Agarwal might be dropped, and KL Rahul can open with Dhawan. Manish Pandey can find himself in middle-order. Kohli can also handover the ODI cap to Natarajan, who had great success in Indian T20 League this year. Team India have been whitewashed in a three-match ODI series only once in history, and it happened this year in New Zealand Down Under.
On the other hand, Australia are in top form after edging past the world’s top-two ODI sides, England and India. Aussies get a perfect start from openers, and Smith takes charge in middle-overs, followed by the acceleration in death from Maxwell. India had no clue to break this story.
Pat Cummins has been rested for this fixture, and Andrew Tye might replace him in the final ODI. Short will replace Warner, who has been ruled of the white-ball series. Andrew Tye will be the third seamer for the Aussies in the final ODI. D'arcy Short can open with Finch, or Langer can promote Labuschagne up in the order. Cameron Green can also earn the Australian cap.
Pitch Report
The Manuka Oval is one of the finest batting ground and if offers good assistance to the batsmen. We might expect another 300 plus score on Wednesday. Batting first sides will have an advantage.
