Date and Time : 3:00 PM IST, 9th June 2019
Venue : The Oval, London
Team India have had a fantastic start to their 2019 World Cup campaign winning the first game they played against strong South Africa. But the World Cup have just begun and they must keep a level head and play the games as they come.
Now their opponents are Australia, the best team in the world and probably the hardest contest. This should raise their spirits and they must give their absolute all. Team India have everything at their disposal.
They just need to play quality cricket. The Bowling looks fine, the fielding is good and will look to keep improving. While the Batters have also contributed. So should be a good game.
On the other hand, Australia are too big a team to think they can slip up. So it means a good tight contest much like the West Indies game is upon us to look forward.
The Aussies are two in two and they will look to keep the win rate going when playing India another contenders for the World Cup. But they must be careful against a quality Indian side.
Team India are behind in terms of the ODI head to head against Australia and they would look to improve upon the fact.

Australia will likely play the same XI as in the previous game.
