Check our Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing Team Picks for 3rd ODI on February 6th

In the dead rubber, Australia and West Indies will take on each other in the 3rd and final ODI of the series on Tuesday. The new-look Australian side completely outfoxed the visiting West Indies in the first two ODIs to wrap up the series in a convincing fashion. West Indies, on the other hand, lacked experience and weren’t determined enough to compete against almost a second-string Australian unit. With the series already slipped away from their hands, they will be playing for pride.

Pre-Match Analysis:

All the 13 members of the initial Australian squad had got their chances in the first two matches of the series with new recruits Jake Fraser McGurk and Will Sutherland making their debut in the 2nd ODI at SCG. Josh Hazlewood who joined the side lately got his opportunity as well. The kangaroos scripted a facile 83-run win on Sunday to take an unassailable lead of 2-0 with a game to go. The all-rounders Matthew Short, Aaron Hardie, and Sean Abbott who batted down the order lifted the side from 5 for 91 to 258 for 9, Sean Abbott in particular who is in and out of the squad made most of the opportunity to smash 69 of 63 balls at his home ground and even excelled with the ball, picking up 3 wickets. The selectors again have to make adjustments to the squad with Matthew Short ruled out of the 3rd ODI with a lower-grade hamstring injury and Ben McDermott named his replacement. Xavier Bartlett who was rested for the 2nd ODI will join the side while Josh Hazlewood is not available to focus on the upcoming T20I series.

West Indies did all the right work in the 2nd ODI to keep Australia for 258 for 9 on easy batting conditions but went horribly wrong in the shot selection which led to their downfall and crumbled for 175 runs with again Keacy Carty top scoring for the side, making 40 runs. Skipper Shai Hope wasn’t able to play his shots with ease and didn’t make any impact. By looking at the positives Gudakesh Motie has done well, picking up a 3-fer in the 2nd ODI. They lost the 1st ODI by 8 wickets and already dropped the series and now hoping to bring the margin of defeat to 2-1.
