MA Chidambaram Stadium

India takes on Australia in the fifth game of the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. The game is scheduled to be played on Oct 08 at 2:00 PM IST.

Facts:

  • With 33 wickets, Kuldeep Yadav is the leading wicket taker for India this year, only Nepal’s Sandeep Lamichhane has taken more wickets in this calendar year.
  • With 1230 runs, Shubhman Gill is the top run scorer in this calendar year.

India vs Australia Chance of Winning

The most decorated team in this tournament takes on the favourites which probably means fireworks. When it comes to Australia in the World Cup, past stats and numbers mean nothing as they always tend to show up.

India are favourites to go all the way which shouldn’t be a surprise. In Shubhman Gill and Kuldeep Yadav, India has the top run scorer and top wicket taker in this calendar year and with stalwarts like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, India have all the ingredients to repeat the feat of 2011.

Regardless of current form we believe this would be an absolute thriller and it could go down to the final ball. As per our calculations, India are favourites to bag maximum points in this fixture.

  • India’s chances of winning - 60%
  • Australia’s chances of winning - 40%

India vs Australia Prediction & Betting Tips 2023

India have dominated games in power play prior to the World Cup. In the last five games they have managed to score 80, 66, 51, 42 and 65 averaging 60.8 runs. On the other hand Australia has managed to score 43, 42, 60, 44 and 104 averaging 58.6. What makes this tip even more interesting is the fact, India has managed to outscore their opponent in four of the last five matches which makes us believe they would outscore Australia in the upcoming game.

Australian wicket keeper batsman Alex Carey hasn't had a good 2023 thus far, This year in nine matches, Carey has averaged mere 23.12 which is pretty low considering he bats down the order. In the last five matches Carey has scored 11, 14, 2, 99 and 12. We believe Carey would struggle to score well in the upcoming fixture.

India vs Australia Match Toss Prediction

Historically Chennai has favoured the team batting first, In 23 games, the team batting first has a 60% win record. In the last five games, on four occasions the team batting first has won the game. Looking at these stats, we believe both teams would prefer to bat first at the venue.

Weather Report

With 50% chances of disruptions we believe rain could delay the game but we don’t believe it would impact the number of overs to be bowled. Maximum temperature is expected to be 32C during the game and minimum temperature is expected to be 27C.

In the last few games they went head to head in a three game series against India where they lost the first two games and eventually lost the series 1-2.

India vs Australia Betting Odds

India to have a better opening partnership than Australia

India will be heading into this game without Shubhman Gill, even though there is enough talent at the top to cause serious problems, we believe Gill would be a big miss at the top as he was the top run scorer in the world this year. Indian openers have been consistent this year as have registered opening stand of 16, 142, 51*, 2 and 80 but Shubhman Gill has been the main reason for those good starts. With Ishan Kishan about to step up in Gill's absence and presence of ever reliable Rohit Sharma who has four half centuries in last five games we believe India would continue to dominate in the initial phase of the match. Australia has struggled to get good starts in recent games leading up to the World Cup especially in India as they were dominated in two of the last three games. In the last five games, Australia has registered an opening stand of 9, 4, 34, 16 and 79 which makes us believe they would struggle in the upcoming game against India. We believe this is a very decent tip to get some quick monetary benefits.

India vs Australia Top Team Batters

Virat Kohli to be India’s top batter

With the absence of Shubhman Gill, Virat Kohli’s importance has grown even further in this tournament. Kohli has scored two half centuries and a century in the last five matches and averages 55.63 in 2023 which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.

David Warner to be Australia’s top batter

David Warner has been great for Australia but he has been exceptional for Australia in India. Warner averages 52.27 runs in India and has scored 52, 53 and 56 in the last three games heading into this tournament which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.

India vs Australia Top Team Bowlers

Kuldeep Yadav to be India’s top bowler

Kuldeep Yadav has been in superb form heading into the World Cup. With 33 wickets he is the leading wicket taker for India this year and averages 16.03 which is just staggering. With Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav is the mainstay for India in this tournament which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.

Adam Zampa to be Australia’s top bowler

Yes over the course of the tournament Mitchell Starc might be a better pick but for this game considering its being played in Chennai, it would be foolish to ignore spinners at this venue. Adam Zampa has been consistent in India, in 16 matches, Zampa has taken 27 wickets which makes him our top pick for the upcoming game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

India

Australia has dominated India in ODI cricket. Both teams have squared off 149 times in the past, Australia has a win percentage of 56%. They have beaten India eight times in 12 games in ICC World Cup and what's more impressive is the fact Australia have beaten India in three of the last five games away from home (in India). The bookmakers have backed India in this fixture as the game will be played in Chennai, we believe Indian spinners would dominate the game from start to finish and would bag their first win in the opening fixture.
