India and Australia are all set to lock horns against each other in a three-match ODI series, starting Sunday, October 19. This first ODI will set the tone ahead of a five-match T20I series. This will be Shubman Gill’s first time captaining India in a 50-over match, and it comes on the special occasion of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli returning to the side.
Australia, on the other hand, have lost their regular captain Pat Cummins to injury and were forced to make three other changes due to similar concerns. Cameron Green, Josh Inglis, and Adam Zampa have been replaced. Australia are the current world champions, having defeated India in the 2023 ODI World Cup final in Ahmedabad. Meanwhile, India are reigning Champions Trophy winners.
