India vs Australia, Third T20I, Match Prediction, Fantasy XI, Who will win?

 

India will face Australia in the final match of the three-matches T20I Ind vs Aus series, and Men in Blue would aim to script a second whitewash in Australia. 

Team Preview 

Before going to the white-colors, Men in Blue takes on Australia to complete the clean sweep in T20s. Team India defeated the hosts in the previous encounter by 6 wickets. Pandya smashed Australian bowlers out of the park and helped India to chase down 195. With this win, India created a new record in the shorter format. 

They won its 10th straight T20 match on Sunday, and it was India’s second T20I series triumph in Australia after 2016. India’s top-order gave a fluent start and avoided the first match’s mistakes. Dhawan got a half-century, and Kohli contributed vital runs in the middle. 

For India, the big positive is Natarjan’s bowling, who bagged 5 wickets from the first two matches. In the previous game, he went for just 20 and picked two wickets. For the final match, India can make changes to the playing XI. To prepare for the Test series, Shami and Bumrah both will be rested again. Kohli can give himself rest, and KL Rahul can lead India. 

Meanwhile, Australia can blame its errors to find themselves on the losing side in both games. In the opening fixture, they failed to carry the powerplay momentum and the middle-order issue hurt the hosts. In Sydney, they were outclassed as they couldn’t defend 194. In the last 6 overs, India required 72, and after few deliveries, Sams got Kohli, but Australia failed to draw any twist to the game. Pandya took the game away from Australia’s hand, and Australia lost its second straight T20I series. Australia can also slip to third or fourth in ICC Rankings. 

The hosts can recall Finch as the captain, and Nathan Lyon can get the game on Tuesday. Team management can also rest Steven Smith to give its Test specialist some rest for the Test series. D Arcy Short might be replaced by Alex Carey. 

Pitch Report 

SCG’s track is good for batting. It offers plenty of help to batsmen. Pacers can get help with the new ball, but in a night match, the seamers' chances are pretty low. The chasing side will have an advantage.

Australia 

Aaron Finch (C), Marcus Stoinis, Steven Smith/Alex Carey, Glenn Maxwell, Moises Henriques, Matthew Wade (c & wk), Daniel Sams, Sean Abbott, Mitchell Swepson, Adam Zampa/Nathan Lyon, Andrew Tye

India 

KL Rahul (wk), Shikhar Dhawan/Mayank Agarwal, Manish Pandey/Virat Kohli (c), Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, T Natarajan, Yuzvendra Chahal

Key Players 

India 

Virat Kohli 

Hardik Pandya

India vs Australia, Second ODI, Match Prediction

 

Australia takes on India in the second assignment of the ODI series top eye the Ind vs Aus series win at home. In the first ODI, Australia defeated Men In Blue by 66 runs after an impressive batting show. 

Team Preview 

Team India will stay in Sydney to face the Aussies in the second match of the ODI series. It will be a do-die clash for India after suffering a big defeat in the opening ODI. After playing an international game after the gap of 8 months, India conceded 374 runs as Finch and Smith scored centuries for Australia. In the chase, India’s top order got a fiery start by adding 50 runs in less than 5 overs but visitors couldn’t take advantage. Dhawan and Pandya took the charge in the massive chase but their heroics couldn’t steal the chase and India lost the match. 

Men In Blue need a big comeback to outclass the Aussies and they had previously done in the same year when they won the series after losing the opening game in Mumbai. India is also lacking in the 5th bowling option and picking Pandya as a proper batsman is giving a tough time to Kohli. India needs to play out of their skin to level the series on Sunday. 

Meanwhile, confident Australia is ready to wrap up another series and it will be a second straight series win for the hosts in ICC’s CWC Super League. In September, they outperformed England down under. Australia’s top three is in fabulous form and the middle-order is charging by Maxwell who fired in the last game, following his ton on the England tour. The pace trio was not in good touch, excluding Hazlewood. 

Zampa is also picking wickets in middle-overs which gave Finch high confidence to try him in flag-overs too. The leg-break bowler has scalped 14 wickets in just 4 matches since the pandemic break. Australia are a more balanced side and India can give them a surprise if the toss comes in favour of the hosts. 

Pitch Report 

Sydney Cricket Ground is a paradise for the batsmen. Spinners can get some help from the surface and pacers can also draw attention with the extra bounce. We expect another 300 plus score on Sunday. 

Possible XI 

Australia 

David Warner, Aaron Finch (c), Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne, Marcus Stoinis, Alex Carey (wk), Glenn Maxwell, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Adam Zampa

India 

Shikhar Dhawan, Mayank Agarwal, Virat Kohli (C), Shreyas Iyer,  KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal/Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Shami, Navdeep Saini
