Analysis

The two matches played so far have seen many eye-catching performances. The top two among those came in the second ODI. Mitchell Starc’s fiery spell and Mitchell Marsh’s blistering half-century are the top two performances of this series. Also, both these players have shown great consistency in the series so far. Therefore, they must be included in the fantasy XI. The other players from the Australian camp who can be included in the fantasy XI are Travis Head, Steve Smith, and Adam Zampa (considering the Chepauk pitch). 

From the Indian camp, Virat Kohli looked in control in the last game and hence can be included in the fantasy team. Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul are the two other good options. Mohammed Siraj and Hardik Pandya too can be included.
