The third and final ODI between India and Australia in Rajkot marked the start of the final countdown for the much-anticipated ICC World Cup 2023, starting 5 October. As far as the series is concerned, the hosts have already taken it, and as such it’s an inconsequential affair but in terms of preparations, the game held significance for both sides with Australia managing to avoid a whitewash, and more importantly got their top order firing in unison to wrap up the rubber with a consolation win by 66 runs.
Electing to bat on a flat deck, Australia’s top order served a timely reminder of what’s in store for the opposition teams during the showpiece tournament. Mitchell Marsh (96) and David Warner (56) fired explosive half centuries to get Australia off to a fiery start in the mandatory powerplay, before Steven Smith (74) and Marnus Labuschagne (72) belted equally destructive half centuries to propel Australia to a massive 352 for 7, the highest at this venue.
