Match Prediction:
Australia begins the series after a 5 match ODI series loss to South Africa. They’ll try to get back on track before the World Cup. They will want to put their players to the test against the top team in India.
India will be delighted following their recent Asia Cup victory. After defeating Sri Lanka in the final, they won the title. Many of the first-team players will miss the first two ODIs. However, the core team will return for the final ODI.
Winning Chances:
Toss Prediction:
At Mohali, teams batting second have an edge. As a result, we believe the toss winner will choose to field first.
Weather Report:
The weather forecast for Colombo is similar to what we have seen throughout the Super Fours, with excessive humidity and a likelihood of rain occasionally interfering with play.
Pitch Report:
During the day, the temperature will be approximately 32 degrees Celsius. The odds of rain are really low, and we may expect a complete game.
Head to Head:
Australia won a three-match One-Day International series in India earlier this year, winning the last two games to win 2-1. In this format, they lead India 82-54 overall.

We anticipate a close game to begin the series, but we believe India’s greater expertise in home conditions will be a big role in their victory.
