Absence of a global silverware in the cabinet always gives one a sense of emptiness, no matter how deified you are as a player. Sachin Tendulkar felt that hollowness till the 2011 triumph happened, Lionel Messi had to wait for his piece of glory till 2022. Rohit Sharma too is a champion player, but his craving for a 50-over ICC title is quite evident when he termed this World Cup as an “unfinished business” for him. Rohit has won two ICC events – 2007 T20 World Cup and 2013 ICC Champions Trophy but everyone knows that in cricket, the real deal is the 50-over World Cup.
Team India were asked to bowl first by Australia in their opening match of the ODI World Cup 2023 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday.

However, Rohit revealed Gill is still recovering from his illness, and also revealed his opening partner for the game.
India and Australia will clash in a much-awaited match of the World Cup at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Sunday. This will be the 150th ODI meeting between the two cricket powerhouses. The two teams have won a combined seven World Cup titles (Australia 1987, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2015; India 1983, 2011). As per head coach Rahul Dravid, India batsman Shubman Gill is suffering from dengue fever and could miss the match. Gill is India's top-scorer in ODIs in 2023, and also hit 104 against Australia last month as India took an unbeatable lead in a three-match series.
The Indian cricket team's bid to end a 10-year drought for an ICC title win kicks off on Sunday as the Rohit Sharma-led side takes on Austrlia in the ODI World Cup opener. The recent Asia Cup triumph has been a positive sign for the players and well wishers of the Indian cricket team. Ahead of India's campaign opener Rohit suggested that being a cricketer in India is not easy, especially with the big weight of fans' expectations. However, Rohit believes that his team is filled with match-winners, who know a thing or two about handling pressure situations.

The Indian cricket team will take on Australia in their opening match of Cricket World Cup 2023 in Chennai on Sunday. India defeated Australia 2-1 in the recently concluded ODI series just ahead of the Cricket World Cup and that will be a major boost for the Rohit Sharma-led side. India enter the competition as one of the favourites and they will be looking to start their campaign with a win over a formidable opponent. However, the absence of Shubman Gill due to illness can prove to be a problem for Rohit and Co but it can also be a major opportunity for Ishan Kishan.
The Indian cricket team will hope to launch its World Cup bid with a win over Australia in their tournament opener on Sunday at the MA Chidamabaram Stadium in Chepauk.

However, the home favourites India will be high on confidence as they recently defeated Australia in a three-match ODI series. India batter Shubman Gill, who has accumulated over 1200 runs in ODIs this year, could sit out this game due to dengue.
