Pre-Match Analysis:
There is a possibility that India will have to play without their key player Shubman Gill, who tested positive for dengue. In that case, Ishan Kishan may be fielded to open alongside captain Rohit Sharma. Due to rain, they were unable to participate in the warm-up matches, which would have helped them finalize their team combination. Ravichandran Ashwin may play in his home venue at Chepauk as he was brought in to replace the injured Axar Patel, and the surface is expected to offer more assistance to the spinners. In the middle order, there is a tough competition for a spot between Suryakumar Yadav and Shreyas Iyer, and Mohammed Shami may have to sit out as Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj are the team’s main pacers.
On the other hand, Australia has won the ICC Cricket World Cup five times, the most by any team in the competition’s history. The current team has the potential to claim the title for the sixth time. They have a strong all-round side, consisting of Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green, Marcus Stoinis, and Mitchell Marsh. Travis Head will be absent due to a hand fracture, which means David Warner will have to pair up with Mitchell Marsh to open the innings. We need to wait and watch if they will spring any surprises while picking their final eleven.
