AUS vs IND 3rd ODI Playing 11: Mitchell Marsh-led Australia will square off against Shubman Gill-led India in the 3rd ODI match on October 25 at Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney.

Australia secured an unassailable 2-0 lead in the ongoing ODI series and will be aiming for a clean sweep. Meanwhile, India will be looking for a win in the upcoming clash, which might be the last game for batting stalwarts – Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

Australia secured a 7-wicket victory in the rain-affected game played on October 19 at Perth. India suffered a batting collapse, which the hosts capitalised on and secured a comfortable win, thanks to Mitchell Marsh’s knock.

The hosts went on to secure a 2-wicket victory in the 2nd ODI after Adam Zampa’s briiliance and Cooper Connolly’s knock.

Australia won the toss and opted to bat. Speaking at the toss, Mitchell Marsh said, “We are gonna bat first. Seems like a really nice wicket. It’s going to be a beautiful day here at the SCG.”

“The way the young guys stoop up towards the back end, it’s great signs for our team. Today’s a great opportunity to go 3-0 up in the series. Cooper is a calm character and he played terrifically last game. Nathan Ellis is back in for Xavier Bartlett.”

Meanwhile, Shubman Gill Said, ” We would have bowled first. Have a target on the total and then try to chase down, I think we got what we wanted.”

“We had just enough runs (in the last game) on the board and a couple of chances coming our way which we couldn’t take. That happens in the game of cricket, you’ve got to take your chances.”

“The game was going on pretty even till about the 40th over. In the end, they played well. Hopefully this game is going to be a good one for us. Two changes. Kuldeep and Prasidh come in for Arshdeep and Reddy,” concluded Shubman Gill.
