Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa sustained a minor blow on the nose as he got hit during a swimming pool session. Although he may not get ruled out of the ODI World Cup 2023 encounter against India, it did give the team a scare. Talking about India vs Australia, it is the most anticipated game since the start of the World Cup 2023.
Before this game, the likes of England, New Zealand, Pakistan, Netherlands, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, and South Africa played one game each. With the India vs Australia game, all 10 teams would start their WC campaign. Australia and India are looking to regain their WC glory in the tournament. While the Aussies have five titles to their name, India has two to their name.
Meanwhile, at the time of writing, ESPNcricinfo reports that Shubman Gill, who is reported to be recovering from Dengue, has not traveled to the venue with the team. This means that Ishan Kishan is set to open the batting with skipper Rohit Sharma.
