IND vs AUS Match Prediction & Analysis India will look to avenge their World Cup loss as they meet Australia in the Champions Trophy semi-final in Dubai. The men in blue have won all the 3 matches they played here in the group stage. On the other hand, Australia won their opening game against England while chasing a massive target of 352 runs, but their remaining games ended without a result. In their last outing against Afghanistan, the Aussies were on top of the game scoring 109 for 1 in the 13th Over while chasing a 276-run target when rain stopped play. Travis Head and Matthew Short are in fine touch at the top and will be key players against India. The pitch has offered help for the spinners and Axar Patel, Varun Chakravarthy, and Kuldeep Yadav will pose a tough challenge to the Aussies. TEAMS PREVIEW India Preview India are in red-hot form with 3 consecutive wins. Their bowlers have been exceptional in all of their matches so far. Varun Chakravarthy’s fifer led them to a 44-run win over New Zealand. The top-order collapsed in the last match. That will be a concern for the men in blue going ahead. They need Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shubman Gill to deliver big in this match. Considering the bowling attack of Australia lacks experience as most of their key players are not part of the squad, we believe India will have the upper hand. Indian batters are more likely to get the better of Nathan Ellis, Ben Dwarshuis, and Spencer Johnson. Adam Zampa would pose a threat with his leg-break bowling. But other than that, India will dominate most of the Australian bowlers. Shreyas Iyer has scored two consecutive fifties in the middle order and will be one to watch out for. Australia Preview Australia look qutie strong as far as the batting lineup is concerned but their bowlers haven’t been in their best form. This is not the classic Aussie bowling lineup that would intimidate the opposition. There is no Starc, Cummins or Hazlewood in the squad. Without these 3 we don’t expect Australia to put the mighty Indian batting order under pressure. Glenn Maxwell, Matthew Short, and Adam Zampa will be crucial with the spin. Spinners have played a key role on this wicket and have driven India’s success. Australian bowlers have been quite expensive in recent games and were far from what’s expected of them. Travis Head, Steven Smith, and Marnus Labuschagne are the key batters to watch out for in this side. We expect these 3 to step up and deliver on the big day. Smith, in particular, will be crucial against the in-form Indian bowling attack. Weather Conditions It will be partly cloudy in Dubai with a high of 28 degrees Celsius. There will be cloudy skies in the city throughout the week with chances of rain next week but on the match day, we expect no rain interruptions. IND vs AUS Pitch Report The pitch has helped the spinners a great deal. There is a lot of turn on offer on this wicket and both teams will back their bowlers to put them on top of the game. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 one-day matches here is 224 runs. We reckon anything above 260 will be a highly competitive total in this match. Toss: To Bowl Though India successfully defended a total in the last match, they’ve managed to chase down a target twice before. It is not an easy pitch to score runs on and bowling first will allow the team to gain the upper hand with early wickets and potentially bundling the opposition for a low score. So far, teams bowling first have won 2 of the 3 matches in the Champions Trophy at this venue.
