India vs Australia 3rd Test Match Prediction
India’s track record at Sydney hasn’t been great as their last test victory at SCG was back in 1978. However, having said that Australia seems to be in shambles after if their wickets fall early and India seems to be low on morale once they miss early chances.
Both the teams will be going with a new opening pairing, both the teams have strong bowling lineup, Hence to conclude it all comes down to who has a better middle order? Which captain is a good leader?
Well, the answer is India for both the questions, Rahane showed his leadership capabilities in the second test and India clearly seems to have a better middle order line up than Australia. Hence, India looks favorite to win the 3rd Test.
