Australia vs India 2nd ODI Predictions - Marsh to smash Australia to series lead

Editor
Last updated: 3 hours ago

Australia showcased stellar performance against India in the rain-reduced 1st ODI, winning by seven wickets. Mitchell Marsh stood out, scoring 46* with significant sixes. Josh Philippe also demonstrated consistent form. India, on the other hand, managed a minor recovery post a top-order collapse, with KL Rahul making notable contributions. Historically, Australia has won more against India, securing victories in three of their last five encounters. With Australia unlikely to make squad changes, they appear poised for continued success. The recommendation is to back Australia and Mitchell Marsh, with KL Rahul as India's best bet.

  • Australia’s Mitchell Marsh top-scored with 46* with three sixes against India.
  • Australia’s Josh Philippe has scored 123*, 39, 50 & 37 in his last 5 innings.
  • India’s KL Rahul hit two sixes in his 31-ball 38 in the 1st ODI.

Head-to-Head


Australia have won three and lost two of their last five matches against India, including two of the last three.

Australia Form


Australia secured back-to-back wins when they beat India by seven wickets on the DLS method. 

Mitchell Starc (1/22, econ 3.66) and Josh Hazlewood (2/20, econ 2.85) crushed India’s spirit by knocking over their top-order for just 45 runs. India recovered enough to set Australia 137 for the win. 

Mitchell Marsh (46*, three sixes) led from the front again, supported by Josh Philippe (37 off 29) as they raced to the win with 29 balls to spare. 

Australia Team News


Australia are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team. 

India Form


India’s run of five wins on the trot in the ICC Champions Trophy ended when they collapsed to a seven-wicket defeat to Australia on the DLS method. 

With the contest cut to 26 overs a side due to damp weather conditions, India slipped to 45/4 before Axar Patel (31) and KL Rahul (38) staged a minor recovery. They ended their 26 overs on 136/9. 

Australia raced to the win off 21.1 overs, with Axar Patel (1/19, econ 4.75) faring the best with the ball for India. 

India Team News


India need their top-order to come to the party if they hope to level the series ahead of a possible decider in the 3rd ODI.  

Verdict

I am backing Australia to win. I am also backing Mitchell Marsh to top score for Australia.

KL Rahul is a good bet to top score for India.
