Update: Australia won the toss and elected to bat first. For India, Ishan Kishan to open the batting with Captain Rohit Sharma since Gill is unwell. In today's match, the spin trio of Ravichandran Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav, and Ravindra Jadeja will likely play a major role.
India is all set to begin the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 journey with its first match against Australia on October 8. Both the teams recently played against each other in a three-match series, where India defeated Australia 2-1. India is in high spirits after emerging as Asia Cup champions this year and defeating Australia in a home ODI series. However, it is recently dealing with the uncertainty over Shubman Gill's inclusion in the World Cup opening match, scheduled to be held at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
Gill has proved to be one of the best opening batsmen for India in recent times. He is currently battling dengue. While captain Rohit Sharma has not ruled out his inclusion in the Chennai match, it is unlikely for Gill to be part of the team on Sunday. This will be the World Cup 2023 tournament's fifth match and India's first.
The two teams will be up against each other for the World Cup 2023 match today (October 8) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The India vs Australia World Cup match will begin at 2 pm IST, while the toss will take place 30 minutes before the match at 1:30 pm IST.
