Leading up to the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 set to kick off on October 5th, cricket enthusiasts can anticipate an exhilarating showdown between two formidable contenders, India and Australia. They are scheduled to engage in a three-match ODI series commencing on September 22nd, serving as the ultimate test and warm-up for both teams before the grand tournament begins.
Australia is recovering from a disappointing 3-2 series loss to South Africa, while India is riding high on a confidence-boosting victory in the 2023 Asia Cup, where they convincingly defeated Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
Following a four-day break, India will face the five-time world champions, Australia, as they work towards finalizing their World Cup squad.
Australia is bringing back their injured trio of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, and Steve Smith, who missed the South Africa series due to various injuries. Additionally, Glenn Maxwell is expected to make a strong comeback. Whereas the experienced off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and Washington Sundar have made their comeback for this series after the injury of Axar Patel.
