India and Australia have a huge rivalry which has only grown in stature over the years. Although the mighty Australians have had the upperhand in the past, the dynamics of this rivalry has altered significantly in the last few years.
India are a much robust, well-equipped side and have world-class players, while Australia have been a victim of generational transition. Although they are always a fierce opponent, Rohit Sharma and his troops have bettered the Oceanian rivals in majority of the meetings.
And as we speak about the clash in Chennai, India look like the favourites. The Men in Blue recently won the ODI series against the Aussies just prior to the start of this World Cup, and in terms of collective, personnel pedigree, the Indian team look in an advantageous position. Hence out prediction predicts an India win at the Southern city.
