The first two matches of the ongoing 3 ODI series between India and Australia have been played. Both India and Australia have won 1-1 matches and are drawn in the series.
The third match to be played in Chennai on March 22 is decisive. The winner of this match will be the winner of the series. In such a situation, both the teams will leave no stone unturned to win the next match and the strategy for this has already started. In the third match also, the Indian team can make a big change. This change may surprise the fans.
The top all-rounder will be out of the playing XI
The all-rounder's leaf can be cut from the third ODI
A big change can be seen in Team India for the third ODI. Hardik Pandya, who captained in the first ODI, can be dropped from the playing XI. In the first two matches of the series, Hardik could not impress with the ball and bat. In the first ODI, Hardik scored 25 runs and took 1 wicket, while in the second ODI, he could only score 1 run and conceded 18 runs in 1 over.
In place of Hardik, all-rounder Shardul Thakur can be included in the playing eleven in the third ODI. Like Hardik, Shardul is known for his fast bowling as well as batting down the order and hitting long shots. Shardul played in the first ODI but captain Rohit Sharma replaced him with Akshar Patel in the second ODI.
This player will get a chance to replace Surya
Suryakumar Yadav may be out of third ODI
Suryakumar Yadav, the world's number one and most dangerous T20 batsman, will also be out of the playing XI for the third ODI. Suryakumar Yadav could not repeat the success of T20 in ODIs. He was dismissed for zero in the first two matches against Australia. Starc dismissed him in both the matches. So he is sure to leave a mark in the third ODI. Captain Rohit Sharma can include Washington Sundar in the team in place of Surya, who gives the option of bowling along with batting.
Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma (C), Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Akshar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami.
