Preview

After India won the first ODI by five wickets, Australia made a befitting comeback in the second ODI and thrashed the home team by ten wickets. The Indian top order kneeled down before a fiery Mitchell Starc while Sean Abbott with help from other bowlers cleaned up the tail. And when it came to chasing down the target, Australia were as clinical as they could get. The opening pair of Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head took Australia home in just 11 overs. 

Nevertheless, the series is evenly poised now and it all comes down to the series decider which is set to be played on Wednesday. It will be interesting to see who will reign supreme and clinch the series. Let’s look at the potential winner through numbers. 

1. Toss Prediction

Australia captain Steve Smith is expected to win the toss as he has been luckier against his Indian counterpart so far. 

2. Win Possibility

Both teams have won a game each and the series stands evenly poised at 1-1. While Australia dominated the proceedings in the second ODI and made India look clueless, India will take inspiration from their previous series wins. The hosts boast of an impressive record in series deciders and hence the Rohit Sharma-led team is the favourite to win the match on Wednesday. 

3. Powerplay Score and first-inning score

The pitch at Chepauk is not so batting-friendly. It is dry and slow and hence another low-scoring game is on the cards. So, the score in the first ten overs is expected to be around 45-55 while the first-inning score can be around 235-260.
