India won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 by 2-1 and enter the three-match ODI series as favourites. The Indian team beat New Zealand 3-0 in their latest ODIs at home after thrashing Sri Lanka.

Australia last played ODIs in November in a three-match series at home after the conclusion of the T20 World Cup 2022. They won all three ODIs with dominant performances against England. But they will be missing captain Pat Cummins and a star pacer Josh Hazlewood due to various reasons. Glenn Maxwell is declared fit for the upcoming game as he returns from his lengthy leg injury. 

The hosts are also missing captain Rohit Sharma for the first ODI due to family commitments. Ishan Kishan will likely open in Rohit's absence, while Suryakumar Yadav or Rahul Tripathi will come into the playing XI in the absence of injured Shreyas Iyer. Umran Malik will likely warm beach with Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, and Shardul Thakur, forming a three-man pace attack.

Average Score

Player Picks

8.5
C

Shubman Gill IND | BAT

The young Indian batter smashed a century in the latest Ahmedabad Test against Australia. Gill smashed a double hundred and one century against New Zealand in the last ODI series and will be a key batter for India in this series.

8
C

Travis Head AUS | BAT

Head replaced retired opener Arron Finch in the last ODI series against England and made a big impact by scoring 240 runs from three innings with one century and one half-century.

9
C

Virat Kohli IND | BAT

The star Indian batter top-scored 186 runs in the first innings of the Ahmedabad Test. Kohli scored just 55 runs in New Zealand ODIs but smashed two big ODI hundreds against Sri Lanka.

8.5

Mohammed Siraj IND | BOWL

The right-arm pacer was in sensational form against New Zealand as he took five wickets from two innings. Siraj ranks first in the current ICC ODI Bowler's chart and has taken 14 wickets from his last five ODI innings.

8.5

Mitchell Starc AUS | BOWL

The Australian speedster will be a key bowler for his team and will be under pressure to contribute in the absence of Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood. Starc took five wickets from just two innings against England in the last ODI series.

8.5

Steve Smith AUS | BAT

The stand-in Australian skipper struggled for runs in the recent Tests against India but has been in terrific form in white-ball cricket. Smith scored 195 runs from three innings against England with two fabulous fifties in the last ODIs.

7

Shardul Thakur IND | BOWL

The star bowling all-rounder was the best bowler for India in the last ODI series against New Zealand. Thakur took six wickets from three innings at an economy rate of 6.46 and costs only 7.0 credits on the Dream11 Team.

7.5

Cameron Green AUS | ALL

The young batting all-rounder smashed his first-ever international century in the last Test against India. Green has scored 290 runs from 11 ODI innings at an average of 58 and has contributed with 11 wickets as well.

7.5

Kuldeep Yadav IND | BOWL

Kuldeep has been in and out of the Indian team lately and will be looking to cement his regular place with impactful spells in the upcoming series. Kuldeep took six wickets from three innings against New Zealand in the last ODI series.

8.5

Ishan Kishan

IND | WK

The young wicketkeeper batter has struggled for runs since smashing a double century against Bangladesh in December 2022. Ishan has scored just 93 runs from his last overall nine innings for India.

9

Marnus Labuschagne

AUS | BAT

The world no.1 Test batter has struggled to make a similar impact in white-ball cricket. He scored just 70 runs from three innings against England in the last ODI series and should be avoided for the Dream11 Team selection.
