The series between India and Australia will be starting tomorrow and it will be a really competitive match and surprised to see Glenn Maxwell back in the time after the freak injury breaking his leg.

Will India be able to avenge the previous matches in today's match against Australia?

I think India will perform very well in today's match. But some of the bowling and batting that India has, if they try to play a little bit better in today's match and I think India will win this match very easily. They will avenge their poor performance in previous matches today.  India can do it for that India will have to play very hard if India win today match then all India fans will be very happy today. I am waiting to watch the game hope India win today.

If you think India will easily win against Australia then you are living in a fool's paradise. Australia is one of the best teams in the world. In no way should this team be considered weak. It is true that the Indian team is in very good form now. There are several talented players on the team. And players are consistently able to play well. India's chances of winning are high. But unilaterally we will see India's dominance, and it will not happen that India will win easily. The match will certainly be competitive. The Australian squad has several talented players who have performed well in the ODI format.

I just found out that Rohit Sharma would not be a part of playin 11 in the first ODI. Hardik Pandya would be the captain and this is the first time that he will be captaining India's ODI team. Iyer is injured and therefore he would not be playing too.

Team India would need a replacement of both Rohit & Iyer. I think Shubhman Gill & Ishan Kishan would be the opening pair. Iyer would be replaced by SKY. I still doubt KL Rahul would get an opportunity. It would be interesting to see who Hardik would chose?

Rohit is out due to "family commitments". So Hardik got the chance to lead India this time. India won the toss and asked Australia to bat. Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh are at the crease now. The real battle will be between Australian batsmen and Indian spinners (Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav). The pitch at Wankhede Stadium should offer a lot of support for the spinners. And the Indian team selection baffles me. They have included three pacers this time - Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami and Shardul Thakur.

Will India be able to avenge the previous matches in today's match against Australia?

India will have to adjust their lineup with the absence of Rohit Sharma and possibly Ishan Kishan as openers. However they have other skilled batsmen who can step up to the plate and deliver strong performances. Additionally, India have a formidable bowling attack that can put pressure on the Australian batsmen. On the other hand, Australia will also have to make some adjustments in the absence of Pat Cummins and Hazlewood. However they still have a strong team and will look to continue their winning streak.
In conclusion, the outcome of today's match is uncertain and both teams are likely to win. It will ultimately come down to how well each team performs on match day.

Indian bowlers have done a good job as they have bowled out 6 Aussies players in 30 overs. Australians are going at run a ball and Stonios and Maxwell are batting at the moment. If India can limit Australia to 250, then India definitely will be favourite. It's too early to say who will win this game as Aussies can bat till there eleventh batsmen. India must not relax and should try to pick more wickets.

Stoinis and Maxwell have both been dismissed, and I'm seeing, Australia doesn't seem to have much of a chance of surpassing the 200 mark at this point. Indian bowlers have just taken their 9th wicket, establishing control over the match. As it stands, Australia are 188/9, and they still have a full 16 overs left in their innings.

If Australia can score 200 runs it would be good to see some batting from the Indian batters. Mohammed Shami came back for a spell and wiped the Australian batsman and now struggling to reach 200 as they lost their 9th wicket and they have 15 overs left to bat and Mitchell Starc  and Zampa must play as long as possible and the Indian fielding is great tonight as they took some difficult catches.

Edit: Maintained a good run rate but Australia all out for 188 .

Maxwell really recovered? That's news to me, last I heard he was doing some commentary. 

I was wondering about this, he just missed a straight ball and went to a boundary, may be his reflex are not working like he wanted  .

Australia against crushed by India  ballers188 all out in 35 overs , the run rate was good but last 5 batsmen didn't stay on crease .
Very bad batting by Australia now wait for their ballers to show their performance.  Indian batsmen should be at ease now with this low target .

Edit: Maintained a good run rate but Australia all out for 188 .

I thought today's match might be fiercely competitive between India and Australia, but the Australian batters could not stand in front of the Indian pressers. Mohammad Siraj (3) and Mohammad Sami (3) have managed to wreak havoc in the Australian batting line. Except for Mitchell Marsh (81), none of the other batsmen could take advantage today. If the Indian batsmen do not face disaster then India will definitely win today's match. However, Indian batsmen are expected to perform better on this pitch than the Australian batsmen.

[JSRAW]

Does anyone feel that Kungfu Pandaya over bowls himself unnecessarily whenever he leads the national team? It also looks like he does this repeatedly whenever they are in complete control of situations, today he under bowled Lord Thakur and it's not the first instance. He did the exact same thing with the likes of Umran and Arshdeep in the last T-20 bilateral series, tbh it seems like stat padding with the ball.

Now all is in hand of Australian bowlers if they manage to take wickets this game is in their control,  till now they have taken 1 wicket on 15 runs in 4 overs .
Quick wickets or they'll loose it easily as the target given by them is too low .

[Sithara007]

India seems to be in some sort of trouble. They have lost 4 wickets and they still need another 126 runs. Required run rate is not an issue, as it is below 4 runs per over. The problem is with wickets. Top order is back in pavilion and now once again the lower order (Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja and Shardul Thakur) needs to take up the responsibility. Starc still has 4 overs remaining, and he has picked up 3 wickets till now. India have three genuine tailenders, and therefore they need to be careful about the fall of wickets.

It's absolutely bowling support pitch that why strong batting lineup like Australia just only score 188 while losing all Thier wickets in 35th over. Just one batter of them got succeed to score around 80. It's not a big target to defend but Now India top order lose Thier wickets too early as a result pressure were build on middle order which they can't manage and lose wickets too now India lose 5 wickets only rahul left with jadeja. Now the best option for them to play slowly and build partnership because they just need 98 runs in 27th overs which is possible but they hold Thier wickets

[elevates]

I am certain that every Indian fan thought that Indian bowlers did a brilliant job in restricting Australia to just 188 runs. They actually realized when India started batting that the conditions are not in favor of the batters. As usual, the top order again collapsed but I am excited to see KL Rahul holding horses and batting like we used to see him earlier. I am not sure whether he would repeat his today's performance in the next match. In the end, he choose to be a wicket-keeper to get selected in the playing 11, very smart!

I was 100% confident that India would easily win the match when they bowled out Australia for only 188 runs. Though India is still favorable to win this match as they need 65 runs in about 19 overs. However, they lost too many too quick wickets and they are 124 for 5 wickets down.
KL Rahul is the key player here as he is well set at 43 runs and the Indian team will ideally want him to stay till India wins this match.  
India cannot lose this match unless they run out of batsmen. Australia only hope to get quick wickets and make them all out before they reach the target of 189 runs.

[Sithara007]

India just need 52 more runs to win, and from now onwards it should be very comfortable for them. The partnership between Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul is now worth 55 runs and the Australian bowlers seems to have lost steam. Steven Smith as the captain did a good job, but once again he failed to get the Indian lower order out despite trying different bowlers. Nothing is certain though. There is a lot of support for bowlers in this pitch. If the Aussies can get two quick wickets, then India will be down to the tail.

Australia tour of India 1st ODI match between these two teams has started. Batting first, Australia set a target of 188 runs in 35.4 overs. Australia team batsmen could not score many runs. The runs that Australia scored seems like Australia played a T20 match. But it will be all out.  I did not think. Now waiting to see how India team batsman can score. Virat Kohli batted badly in today's match. On the day when Virat Kohli bats well, India wins the matches very easily.

[JSRAW]

Depressing BKL is taking care of the Indian collapse and taking them to the finishing line, to be fair in the ODI format he does have an excellent record when he bats in the middle order with his keeping gloves on. He's a good addon in the ODI setup as long as he's keeping and batting in the middle order.

This Wankede stadium has one of the finest deck for limited overs cricket as it produces high scoring decks for T20Is and competitive wickets for ODIs.

Even if Virat Kohli plays badly in this match India will easily win the match Rahul scored 68 runs alone and he is still playing. India need only 16 runs in 13 overs which is not a difficult task for India to complete and an easy task for any cricket team not just India.  India still have 5 wickets left so there is no doubt that India is going to win the match. However, compared to India, Australia had a much better run rate but they could not hold on to their wickets and all the wickets were lost in just 35 overs.
