IND vs AUS

After a whitewash against Sri Lanka by 9-0, team India is set to take over Australia in the India vs Australia tour. The cricket fans are already excited to witness this epic clash between the two giants of the cricket world. The epic banter between Virat Kohli and Steve Smith is something to look forward too.

Australia will take on India on their tour to play five ODIs and three T20Is in the country.  Chennai, Kolkata, Indore, Bengaluru, and Nagpur will be among the venues to host the five ODI matches of Australia’s limited-overs tour of India. The matches will be played on September 17, 21, 24, 28 and October 1 respectively.

The Board President XI team will play a warm-up match against Australia on September 12 in Chennai. The three T20 International matches of the tour will be held in Ranchi (October 7), Guwahati (October 10) and Hyderabad (October 13).

Australia is ranked second in the latest ICC ODI rankings while India is ranked third. The last time they visited India in a test series, they suffered a whitewash. With defeating Sri Lanka on their home soil, India must be in high confidence with the team’s performance.

On the other hand, though Australia levelled up the series against Bangladesh still the first test loss and their flaws to play against Spinners must be a huge concern. It will be out of the world to witness when these two teams lock horns.
