Match Prediction for the third ODI between Australia and India

Australia have dominated India in both the ODIs so far and they have deservingly sealed the three-match series. The hosts have come up with a complete batting performance which has put the visitors on the backfoot.

However, Australia will be without David Warner and Pat Cummins as the former has been ruled out due to groin injury whereas the latter has been rested.

We have got Match Prediction for you which can help you in placing the right bets. We will discuss current form, head to head, stats and players to watch out for in the upcoming match.

Current form:

Australia have looked ruthless in the series and the hosts are ticking the right boxes in all the three departments of the game. The Aaron Finch-led team is coming with collective efforts and the same has been palpable.

India have struggled to find any kind of impetus in the ongoing ODI series. In fact, the Virat Kohli’s team have lost their last five ODI matches. The visitors will need to find a method of striking early to keep Australian batsmen at bay.
