From 2006 at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore Just three ODI’s had been played here and India scored the highest total of the venue. It was 418 with 5 down, which was scored on 8 Dec 2011 against West Indies. Then V Sehwag was the captain of the Indian team and he scored 219 runs. V Kohli scored 23 runs off 15 balls in that match. The second and third highest totals are also scored by the home team. Which means the Indian team is much strong at this venue. Australia will play their first ODI match here.
Kohli: We would have batted first as well. We spoke to a curator – the wicket may play better under lights. We will try to use the conditions to the best with the two wrist-spinners. We are playing on the same team.
Smith: Possibly (best batting pitch of the series?). Hopefully, we bat well and post a good total. Finch is back in place of Cartwright, Handscomb replaces Wade, and that would strengthen the middle order.
