IND VS AUS 1st ODI 2020 PREVIEW

Finally its time for Kohli and co. to take over Australian kangaroos on their own soil. Team India is playing its first match after lockdown, its been over 9 months since they last played a match together in the Indian jersey against New Zealand in February. This is going to be a two month long and hectic tour for both teams comprising of ODI, T20 AND TEST matches, with ODI series starting from tomorrow at Sydney. Both the teams are looking balanced but Australia has a slight advantage due to the unavailability of Rohit Sharma in the Indian camp. But apart from that, it is going to be a close contest. Australian batting order is looking very giant due to the presence of Finch, Warner, Smith and Labuschagne at the top order. India would rely heavily on Bumrah and Shami to take wickets upfront otherwise Australia will register a huge total on board. Spinners will have a big contribution in the match as Sydney's pitch provides turn and grip for slow bowlers. Chahal and Jadeja will have a pivotal role in the middle overs. On the other hand Indian batting looks decent in the presence of captain Virat and in form Rahul and Shikhar. Mayank will get a chance to showcase his talent at the top in the absence of Rohit. There is a mini battle at no.6 spot between Manish Pandey and Hardik Pandya. The latter is making a comeback for India after a long time. Mighty Australian pacers would be waiting for the match to begin as they will enjoy bowling at a Rohit less Indian batting on a pacy, bouncy wicket. Starc and Cummins will hunt in pair with the new ball and in the death overs. Zampa will be a key a factor in the middle overs for Australia. Now let us have a look at ODI statistics of Sydney cricket ground.

IND VS AUS 2nd ODI 2020 PREVIEW

After a one sided contest in the first match, everyone would be expecting to see a close battle between the two powerhouses of cricket in the 2nd ODI. Indian team has a last and only chance to make a comeback tomorrow at Sydney, otherwise Australia will take an unassailable lead in the series. The problem of sixth bowling option is hurting India badly as we saw in the first ODI. In the absence of Hardik the pacer, Indian team is looking incomplete in the bowling department, and Australia took full advantage of that and piled up huge runs on the board. India must find a way to play Kuldeep in the xi at the cost of either Iyer or Mayank if they want to beef up their bowling, otherwise India will be batted out of the game by Australia once again. Jadeja was economical, Shami took 3 wickets but Bumrah and Chahal had an off day and they would be hoping to perform much better tomorrow. Coming to Saini, there were reports that he is suffering from back spasms and is not fully fit, if that is ...

IND VS AUS 3rd ODI 2020 PREVIEW

  A whitewash down under...,maybe? maybe not? This question will be answered tomorrow at Canberra. Both the matches at Sydney were one sided with Indian bowling looking clueless against ever hungry Australian batsmen. India haven't lost the series due to batting, the team managed to score above 300 runs in both the matches, the main damage has been done by our bowlers, excluding Shami, no one else looked motivated and determined to take wickets, the biggest disappointment are Bumrah and Chahal who performed extraordinarily in IPL 2020 but looked out of touch against Aussie batsmen. Saini is a liability for the team and should be rested until he is fully fit. Natarajan should replace him tomorrow as he is a left arm pace, a rare commodity in Indian cricket. Jadeja is an economical bowler but he too has a responsibility on his shoulder to take wickets in the middle overs. Kuldeep must play tomorrow in place of either Shami or Bumrah if India decides to rest one out of the t...
