On the other hand, Australia is coming to India on the back of a series defeat in South Africa. After the first two ODIs in the series, the Aussies were leading 2-0, but they failed to hold on to it and lost the next three games. Thus, while testing their team combination one final time before the major event, they will also look to make a statement by winning the series. 


IND vs AUS, 1st ODI: Pitch Report

The pitch at Mohali will favour the batters. It will have true bounce and the batters can trust it while playing their shots. In case of the bowlers, the pacers will get help from the wicket in the initial stages of both the innings. There will not be too much of a turn so the spinners with good control will get a bot of help from the wicket.

IND vs AUS, 1st ODI: Top Player Picks

Shubman Gill (IND)

  • The Indian opener was in a great form in the Asia Cup 2023. In most of the matches he gave the team a good solid starts and also scored a gutsy hundred against Bangladesh while chasing a daunting target. Gill will be a good choice for the fantasy contests of the first ODI. 

Mohammed Siraj (IND)

  • The Indian seamer brought down hell upon the Sri Lankan batters in the Asia Cup 2023 final. The wicket at Mohali will provide him help with the new ball and with that Siraj definitely can decimate the Aussie batting line-up. He will be a prime pick for the fantasy contests of the match. 

Steve Smith (AUS)

  • A lot will depend on Steve Smith if Australia has to win the series and for that matter do well in the World Cup. Smith knows the Indian conditions well and is a great player of both spin and pace. For the first match, Smith is a must pick. 

Sean Anthony-Abbott

  • Sean Abbott is an effective bowler and a handy lower order batter. The fact that he can pick up points in both innings of the match makes him a prime pick for the fantasy contests.
