IND vs AUS: Pitch Report
In the ongoing 2023 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup, batsmen have predominantly outshined the bowlers in most matches. However, this trend is anticipated to change during the IND vs AUS final at the Narendra Modi Stadium. At the beginning of the match, fast bowlers are likely to gain an advantage from additional swing and seam movement. As the innings progresses, spin bowlers are expected to play a more significant role, exploiting the conditions. Nevertheless, there is still ample scope for batsmen to excel, provided they skillfully navigate the playing conditions. According to the data of the 30 One Day Internationals previously held at this venue, there is a balanced history: both teams batting first and those chasing have each won 15 games. The average score for the first innings stands at 243. However, the wide range of scores recorded at this ground - with a peak of 365 and a lowest of 85 - highlights a pitch that can become increasingly challenging for batsmen as the match progresses. Given these dynamics, the captain who wins the toss in this crucial final might be inclined to bat first, aiming to exploit the early favourable conditions for batting, before the pitch starts to offer more assistance to the bowlers.
IND vs AUS: Head-To-Head ODI Record
India and Australia have competed against each other in a total of 150 One Day International (ODI) matches. In these encounters, India has secured 57 victories, while Australia has triumphed in 83 matches. There were 10 games that concluded without a result. In the context of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cups, these two teams have clashed 13 times. Among these matches, Australia holds the upper hand with 8 wins, compared to India's 5 victories.
