India is shuffling the batting order to include a left hand right hand combination and they broke up the best openening partnership in the world in recent times which is KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma and the best no 3 batsman Kohli is moved to no 4. Shikhar Dhawan was struggling as he scored 3 runs in 22 balls and now he broke the shackle by scoring 2 boundaries and Shreyas Iyer does have the opportunity to perform well as he is a promising talent and i am hoping he will take advantage of the opportunity.

OZ winning the toss and decided to bowl first. I am quite sceptical with their decision as they have not played ODI from long and now going to chase. India is batting well with score of 128/1 in 26 overs. Dhawan is playing well and if he makes 100 India can easily surpass 300 runs + in the first innings. OZ needs to pick couple of quick wickets to stop them making big score.

Sad to hear Dhoni is not playing, l guess new players will be tested. Wankhede is a batting track, team winning toss will bat first and set a target of more than 280 plus.

Dhoni is not in the team after the World Cup and whether he himself is not available for selection is not clear. If it is a batting track 280 runs is not a huge total in today's game and India does have the players to score above 300 runs and only then it will be an interesting battle.

Australia electing to bowl first. Let's see how muc Team India scores batting first.

India started with a boundary and i hope it will be a classic battle as Australia does have a good batting line that could challenge any team.

Yes, today match will be more interesting to see because australian team will be going to play first odi match after world cup and Indian team will play match without Ms Dhoni, let's see how both teams are going to performance today and we can expect a high scoring game today.

The series against Australia will be a real test of character for all the players, some were able perform well against weaker teams but the touring Australian team is in great form and it is a real challenge for India and after a long time i am seeing good odds for a match and i am expecting a tough match and high scoring one as batsman from both the teams are in good form and since the series is in India i am giving the edge for India to win the series.

For me, it looks like Australia is having the advantage, even if India is hosting the matches. The Australian players (such as David Warner, Marnus Labuschagne, Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins) have been in great form, and the only thing that should bother them is the fact that they don't have any world class spinner. Nathan Lyon is not really a legend and they don't have any experienced spinner other than him.

Got to know Aus have not played an ODI since WC. Hope they struggle now lol.

India will be having an advantage in this series but Australia is playing well right now and the entire series depends upon how Australian batsman is going to deal with the Indian pitch and i think they will not come up with a green pitch that could aide fast bowlers and i am expecting a batsman friendly pitch in this series and i will be surprised if the matches are not high scoring matches.

The series between India vs australia they are going play in all three matches pitch will be high score pitch like Chinnaswamy stadium Bangalore, wankhede Mumbai,
And today we have match in wankhede Mumbai so we can expect high scoring match there maybe it will be very difficult to control the australian top order batting lineup because we know they are very good hitters let's see how Indian bowlers going to attack today.

This is going to be very interesting. I want to see how well Mitchell Starc adjust with the Indian conditions. He is someone who depends a lot on pace and swing, and therefore the lack of grass shouldn't matter much. And also, I want to see younger Indian pacers such as Navdeep Saini and Shardul Thakur bowling against the Australian batsmen. They have performed well against the weaker teams, and this will be a real test.

Ind VS Aus 3 ODI series is starting with in 20 hours. Squad is set for both teams and we can hope for good contest as both teams are strong competitors.

Fun Fact : Mitchell Starc featured in 85+ ODI games for Aus but played only 1 ODI in India back in 2010 (Debut series). so his 2nd ODI game in India after 9 long years.

Australian Squad: Aaron Finch (c), D'Arcy Short, Ashton Agar, Alex Carey (wk), Pat Cummins, Peter Handscomb, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne, Kane Richardson, Steven Smith, Mitchell Starc, Ashton Turner, David Warner, Adam Zampa.

Indian Squad: Virat Kohli (c),Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, KL Rahul,Shreyas Iyer, Manish Pandey, Kedar Jadhav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Navdeep Saini, Jasprit Bumrah, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Shami.

The fact was really unknown and also this would be their 1st ODI after WC . So things might be little shaky for them though they have being playing cricket well in other formats but paying ODI with Indian and that too on India would be difficult .

Wankhede is lucky for MI and the Indian team and it's winter so hoping to see runs more than 350-400. Aus has won 29 ODIs against India in India in total 61 matches so hoping to see this series won by India now as they have a well settled team this time. Missing Dhoni. He should have played for his team in ODIs atleast.

Got to know Aus have not played an ODI since WC. Hope they struggle now lol.

Finally India will be having a competitive team after a long time, even with weaker teams India used to get defeated in a game in the series and what happens when they are facing a good team like Australia and with the return of Bumrah their bowling is great and how the Indian batsman are going to face the Australian bowlers decides how the series will be as Australia never had a good series in India in recent times but now things are different with the return of Warner and Smith in the team.

Ireland lost their 3rd ODI yesterday. That means that the West Indies whitewashed the series 3-0. I know that the Irish board is not very rich and the players are not getting much opportunities. But that's the way it is in cricket. If you want sponsorship and advertising revenue, then you should showcase your caliber by defeating the big teams. They managed to do that in 2011 World Cup, when they defeated England. This enabled them to get some good deals. But after they were granted the test status (in 2017), their performance has been mediocre. The other associate sides have performed better than them.

Blaming the players is a bit too harsh. I do agree with it. The board should give these players more opportunities to play with international players and they will surely improve. Their circumstances have not allowed them to improve their performance.

If these players get the exposure with world class international players then they will learn from them and improve without a doubt and playing in franchisee cricket will get the best exposure like the IPL but the problem is that you need to have the minimum standard to get selected. Playing against tough teams will help them but will it improve their techniques is still questionable.

Also I feel the criticism directed at Ireland players is a bit harsh, because you’ll need to understand that they were never pros in this sport and it’ll take them quite a while before they can offer some serious competition to their opponents.

I agree with this statement as you cannot blame them for not winning, they need to find good bowlers if they plan to have a competitive edge against top quality batsman, new teams like Afghanistan has Rashid Khan and other similar world class bowlers and they need consistent batsman while the other countries like Ireland has batsman that could change a match but are not consistent and they lack a world class bowler, if you are to challenge top teams you need to have an extra ordinary player and the rest of the team will revolve around him.
