IND vs AUS Dream11 Grand League Teams | Australia vs India 3rd ODI

Melbourne, January 18 at 7:50 AM IST

Australians threw a surprise with an all-round effort to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. India, under the pump, bounced back in the second to square the series to set up the final.

Shaun Marsh has stood up for the Aussie batting, with the likes of Usman Khawaja, Peter Handscomb, Marcus Stonis and Glenn Maxwell all chipping to silence all the voices questioning their place in the XI. Young Jhye Richardson delivered like a seasoned campaigner to peg the experienced Indian batting order back in the first ODI.

India would be happy to see talismanic Dhoni among the runs. Rohit and Kohli have already racked hundreds while Dhawan has looked in good touch. Bhuvneshwar has found some rhythm with each game.
