India are 2-0 up in the three-match ODI series and what's more, skipper Rohit Sharma, vice-captain Hardik Pandya, Virat Kohli and Kuldeep Yadav are set to join the team for the third and final ODI against Australia at Rajkot. Returning Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who was rested for second ODI, will make his return to the team. But, the likes of Shardul Thakur and Shubman Gill have been rested for the final game. However, the two players will be joining the squad in Guwahati where India will start their preparations for the ODI World Cup 2023. (Scorecard | Match Blog | Asiad Full Coverage)
Never before in the history have India whitewashed Australia in the ODI format. In fact, neither of them have achieved such a result, home or away, irrespective of the number of matches played in a series. Given how perfectly everything has panned out for the World Cup hosts in the lead up to the mega tournament, it would only be fitting that India finish with a deserving 3-0 score-line.
