AUS vs IND dream11 team prediction tips
This game will have some obvious choices for fantasy teams and lets take a look at them in AUS vs IND dream11 prediction
Steve Smith: He has 1429 runs in 10 tests at an average of 84 against India. Surely, if these stats aren’t enough for one to make him the captain in dream11, he has 7 100s against India in the last 8 tests he played and this stat should be enough for one to pick him in fantasy leagues
Jasprit Bumrah: He was seen in good rhythm in the practice game and one should try to pack the fantasy team with as many bowlers as possible as both the teams have strong bowling attack.
Pat Cummins: The #1 bowler in the test cricket will be back and roaring after being rested in the T20I series. He has been the #1 bowler in the world for a reason and he walks straight into any batting lineup.
Josh Hazlewood: We saw how he troubled Indian batters in white ball cricket and this being his most preferred format will only bring more headaches to the Indian batsmen. He is sure to pick a handful of wickets
Other picks: Marnus Labuschagne, Cheteshwar Pujara, Nathan Lyon and Cameron Green are all good picks.
Today AUS vs IND match score: Team batting first will look to post around 350 to 400
Today match pitch report: The wicket will be a good sporting wicket and the ball is expected to do that extra bit under lights making the lives of the batters difficult
