It's an exciting time for Indian cricket as we gear up for the ODI series against Australia. One thing that stands out in this series is the absence of some of our star players - Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, and Rohit Sharma.

India is clearly using this opportunity to test their bench strength, and I must say it's a bold move. We've seen glimpses of talent from these young players, and this series will be a true test of their mettle.

The future of Indian cricket looks promising, and this series could be a stepping stone for these budding talents.

And hey, let's not forget to celebrate the fact that India is now ranked #1 in all formats in ICC rankings. It's a testament to our team's consistent hard work and dedication.

Here's to some thrilling cricket action, a strong show by our new recruits, and the hope that India maintains its top spot in the rankings. Let the games begin! 🏏🇮🇳 #TeamIndia #INDvsAUS

This is how a team should be built. We should not depend on just few players and get ourselves into a corner if one of them gets injured.

It is really a good strategy. All the best to team India.

Cheers..

Cameron Green, right-arm medium, comes into the attack

Change of gloves for Shreyas Iyer

9.3 Green to Shubman Gill, FOUR, 136.7kph, Shubman Gill dances down the track and swings this length ball outside off over the bowler's head. Slapped down the ground. Not quite off the middle of the bat

aman chauhan: Sad that this stadium is not hosting any world cup game. ENGvIND or ENGvAUS or ENGvSA would have been 800+ runs fest

Drizzle is playing a spoilsport now.

How long will it stay?

It has started to drizzle and Shubman Gill pulls out twice as Green runs in to bowl...

2.13pm Delay after delay. Green ran in to bowl but pulled out. Then Gill told the umpire that it's drizzling (which indeed it is.) After that Gill moves out of the way with Green running in to deliver the ball again.
