The third ODI at the Sydney Cricket Ground carries added significance as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are now playing only ODIs, having retired from Tests and T20Is. With their careers nearing the final chapters, this is likely the last time the legendary duo will tour Australia, making the Sydney match a memorable farewell for fans.
Another talking point is the potential inclusion of Kuldeep Yadav, who was controversially left out of the first two ODIs despite his recent strong performances. Fans and experts alike will be watching closely to see if the left-arm wrist spinner finally gets a chance to showcase his skills in the series finale.
Catch the final ODI of the India vs Australia series on October 25 at Sydney Cricket Ground. Watch live on Star Sports Network or stream online on Disney+ Hotstar from 9 AM IST. India aims to avoid a series whitewash.
Rohit Sharma found his rhythm in the second ODI, top-scoring for India with a composed 73 off 94 balls. Though the innings was slower than his usual attacking style, the Indian opener will look to build on that form and deliver another solid performance in the final ODI at the SCG.
Virat Kohli has endured a tough series, recording back-to-back ducks for the first time in his international career. As India face Australia in the final ODI at the SCG, the star batter will be desperate to regain form and finish the tour on a high.
India’s predicted XI for the third ODI at the SCG includes Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill (c), Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Prasidh Krishna, Mohammed Siraj, and Arshdeep Singh. The team will look to play for pride after losing the first two matches of the series.
Australia’s predicted XI for the third ODI against India at the SCG features captain Mitchell Marsh, Travis Head, Matthew Short, Matt Renshaw, Alex Carey (wk), Cooper Connolly, Mitchell Owen, Xavier Bartlett, Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa, and Josh Hazlewood. The team looks set to aim for a historic series sweep.
Ahead of the final ODI against Australia at Sydney, former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan advised Virat Kohli to prioritize strike rotation. Coming off two consecutive ducks in the series, Kohli will be keen to make a mark in what could be his last competitive ODI in Australia, aiming for a big knock to end the tour on a high.
The final ODI at SCG could hinge on three critical player battles. Virat Kohli will look to overcome Xavier Bartlett, who dismissed him in consecutive ODIs. Rohit Sharma faces Josh Hazlewood, who has consistently troubled him in the series.
In the middle overs, Shreyas Iyer takes on leg-spinner Adam Zampa, whose record against him could derail India’s plans. These duels may well decide the outcome of a series-deciding dead rubber.
After losing the first two ODIs against Australia, India will play for pride in the series-deciding match at the Sydney Cricket Ground. With rain-affected struggles and mixed batting performances behind them, India may explore fresh options, including Kuldeep Yadav, as spin-friendly conditions and long boundaries make his inclusion more likely.
