India vs Australia 2nd ODI, Live Updates: India will be squaring off against Australia in the second ODI match on Sunday in Indore. The hosts have already taken 1-0 lead in the three-match series after registering a thumping five-wicket win over Australia in the first ODI on Friday.
Australia unveiled the jersey for the upcoming ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 with star allrounder Glenn Maxwell featuring in the kit that incorporates the First Nations design. The colour of the kit is gold which resonates a bit with their past World Cup jerseys and along with this, it features the First Nations design that will appear on all of Australia's international playing kits.
India vs Australia, 1st ODI, Live Updates:India will be squaring off against Australia in the first ODI of the three-match series on Friday in Mohali. For the first two matches, the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Kuldeep Yadav, and Hardik Pandya have been rested. In the absence of skipper Rohit, wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul will be donning the captain's hat.
Mohammed Siraj was the top performer for India in the Asia Cup 2023 final as he produced a devastating spell of fast bowling to leave Sri Lanka in tatters during the summit clash. The pacer ended up taking six wickets as Sri Lanka were all-out for 50 and India ended up winning the game by 10 wickets. The next assignment for the Indian cricket team is the three-match ODI series against Australia and Siraj will once be a key component in the Indian pace attack. Australia skipper Pat Cummins was asked if he has any special plans for Siraj but he quickly shut the discussions down by just saying 'no'.
Australia will look to get the most out of the upcoming three-match ODI series in India - the best possible preparation for the World Cup that begins early next month in the country.
Australian skipper Pat Cummins hopes to play all three ODIs against India after completely recovering from his left wrist injury, but said new ball partner Mitchell Starc will miss Friday's series opener. The Australia skipper also hoped that Marnus Labuschagne will continue his good form in the series against India and stake his claim in the final 15 for the ODI World Cup. "We have plenty of people at different stages. I am feeling pretty good. My wrist is all healed now. I am 100 per cent (fit). I will run around tomorrow and hope to play all three games," Cummins, who had a left wrist fracture, said during the pre-match press conference on Thursday.
The Indian cricket team registered a comprehensive 10-wicket win against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup final on Sunday. After Sri Lanka opted to bat, Mohammed Siraj ran through their battng order, picking six wickets for just 21 runs in seven overs. Sri Lanka were skittled out for a paltry total of 50 runs, which India chased down in 6.1 overs. Sunday's win is a good confidence booster ahead of next month's World Cup on home soil. However, before their opening game of the tournament on October 8 against Australia, India face the Pat Cummins-led side in a three-match series, starting September 22.
Left-arm fast bowler Marco Jansen dismissed the first five Australian batsmen to clinch a come-from-behind series win for South Africa in the fifth one-day international at the Wanderers Stadium on Sunday. Jansen took five for 39 as Australia were bowled out for 193 in reply to South Africa's 315 for nine. South African captain Temba Bavuma said the character of the team had shone through after they lost the first two matches of the series, which boded well for the World Cup in India next month. "There is a lot of confidence we can take, in that we had our backs against the wall and we showed we have ways of getting on top of the game. We will go to India in probably the best state we can be."
