IND vs AUS Dream11 Match Prediction, Playing XI, Pitch Report, Fantasy Picks | 1st ODI

India (IND) will face Australia (AUS) in the opening ODI of the Australia Tour of India at the IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali. This will be the first of three One-Day Internationals (ODIs) in India and is viewed as excellent preparation for both teams ahead of the World Cup. Both teams are excited to put their bench fortitude to the test in this series.

In the previous match between India and Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat. The final contest of the Asia Cup was a nightmare for the Sri Lankans due to Siraj's destruction of their batting lineup.

He picked up six wickets, giving away just 21 runs as Sri Lanka were wiped out for a record-low total of just 50. Such a score was never going to be a problem for the Indian team's in-form batting lineup. They chased down the target in only six overs and won the match by 10 wickets.

Australia's previous match was against South Africa, in which Australia won the toss and elected to bowl. When given the opportunity to bat, the Africans began slowly and cautiously, but as soon as Aiden Markram and David Miller joined forces, the score skyrocketed.

With a fantastic finale by Marco Jansen and Andile Phehlukwayo, they scored 315 runs, which is a respectable total. Other than Marsh and Marnus, nobody contributed to Australia's pursuit. They were consequently wiped out for 193 and lost by 122 runs.
