Former Australia captain Michael Clarke has predicted that Virat Kohli will emerge as the highest run-getter and Josh Hazlewood among the wickets in the final game of the series as well. The third ODI is scheduled for Saturday, October 25, at the Sydney Cricket Ground as well.

Speaking on the Beyond23 Cricket Podcast on Friday, October 24, Clarke said: “I’m going to say they’ll stick with Starc and Hazlewood, and I’ll go with Joshy for leading wicket-taker in the game. I’ve gone with Virat so far; he’s got two ducks. I’m going to go with Virat Kohli for leading run-scorer in this game. Hazlewood leading wickets, and Virat leading run-scorer.”

“And I’m going to say India win, so 2-1 India wins. I predicted 2-1 Australia, so I don’t mind if India wins this game, one of my predictions, right? But yeah, look, I just hope it’s a really good game of one-day cricket. India won’t want to go home without a win, and like I say, you’re leading into the T20s as well, so a lot of the players will go into that format wanting to take some confidence. I’m hoping it’s a good game,” he further added.

Notably, Australia has already secured the series, holding a 2-0 series lead heading into the Sydney game as well.
