In the ICC World Cup 2023, the Indian team will play its first match against Australia on Sunday. This match between the two teams will be played at the M Chidambaram Cricket Stadium in Chennai. Rohit’s platoon will be eyeing to start the tournament with a win. At the same time, the Kangaroo team would also like to start the World Cup with a bang.
Who will replace Shubman Gill?
The Indian team will field against Australia without its in-form batsman Shubman Gill. Gill has been affected by dengue and due to this he will not be seen playing the first match. In place of Gill, Ishan Kishan will be seen opening the innings with Rohit Sharma. Virat Kohli will hold the number three position, while the responsibility of the middle order will be on the shoulders of Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, and Hardik Pandya.
Team India will field with three spinners
Looking at the pitch of Chennai’s M Chidambaram Cricket Stadium, the Indian team can field against Australia with three spinners in the playing eleven. Kuldeep Yadav will test the Kangaroo batsmen with his spinning balls. At the same time, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja will be seen supporting him. Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj will be seen wreaking havoc in the pace attack.
Team India probably playing 11:
Rohit Sharma (captain), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.
