IND vs AUS, 3rd ODI match: Fantasy Preview and Rummy Bo Top Picks

Match: India vs Australia, 3rd ODI match (IND vs AUS)

Date: September 27, Wednesday, 1.30 PM IST

Venue: Saurashtra Cricket association Stadium, Rajkot

India and Australia will square off against one another in the third and final clash of their ongoing series, set to unfold at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot on September 27. India currently commands a 2-0 lead in the series, setting the stage for a potential clean sweep.

In the opening match of the series played in Mohali, Mohammad Shami’s remarkable five-wicket performance garnered substantial attention, limiting Australia to a modest first-innings total of 276 runs. India, in response, showcased their prowess as Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shubman Gill orchestrated an impressive partnership of 142 runs for the opening wicket, ultimately propelling India to victory with eight balls to spare. Worth noting are the contributions of KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav, both notching up half-centuries.

The second ODI in Indore witnessed India’s dominance reach new heights. After posting a formidable 399 runs while batting first, courtesy of centuries by Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer, alongside half-centuries by KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav, Australia found themselves bowled out for a mere 217 runs. India clinched a resounding 99-run victory via the DLS method.

This series serves as the ultimate preparation for both teams ahead of the impending World Cup, slated to commence on October 5th. Australia now seeks to boost their morale by clinching a victory in the final match, thereby avoiding a whitewash.

Five players to watch out for

Here we list five players you must pick in your Rummy Bo fantasy XI for IND vs AUS, 3rd ODI

Virat Kohli – batsman, India

Virat Kohli, along with a few other senior players, was rested for the first two ODIs and will now be returning for the final ODI. Kohli, who recently scored an unbeaten 122 against Pakistan at the Asia Cup, will be looking to go all guns blazing in his last match before the World Cup gets underway.

KL Rahul – wicketkeeper batsman, India

KL Rahul scored a half century in both the first two ODIs and will now be looking for a hattrick of half centuries. He remained unbeaten on 58 in the first match in Mohali, and followed it up with a knock of 52 in the second game in Indore. KL’s recent form has been impressive – he recently scored a century against Pakistan at the Asia Cup as well.

Mohammad Siraj – bowler, India

Mohammed Siraj was rested for the first two games. In his last performance in the final of the Asia Cup 2023 on September 17, Siraj wreaked havoc with the ball, picking up six wickets for just 21 runs. He will be one of India’s key bowlers in the World Cup,

Steve Smith – batsman, Australia

Steve Smith, who has historically always performed well against India across formats, scored 41 off 60 balls in the first ODI but was dismissed for a duck in the second ODI. Steven Smith needs 20 runs to become the fourth-fastest from Australia to reach 5000 in ODIs, a record he will be eyeing in Rajkot.

David Warner – batsman, Australia

David Warner scored a half century each in both the first two matches and is Australia’s highest run-scorer in the series so far. Two weeks ago, he scored a half century and a century against South Africa as well. Warner’s recent form makes him a must-have player in your Rummy Bo fantasy team.
