WI vs AUS Dream11 Team, Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing XI Updates for 1st ODI Match

West Indies will face Australia in the 3rd T20I of Australia’s tour of West Indies which is scheduled to be played on 13th July at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia.

The West Indies have been utterly prevailing in this series, and are only one win away from cleaning Australia. The visitors were startled to lose two games in a row to the West Indies, who put on dominating displays. The Windies have excelled in both departments whereas Australia’s batting has been a big concern and not to forget that Starc and Zampa have been wicketless so far in the series.

In the last game, West Indies put on a terrific batting outburst that took the Australian bowlers by surprise. Windies achieved a strong 196/4 thanks to Shimron Hetmyer’s 36-ball 61 and Dwayne Bravo’s 47.

With the exception of Mitchell Marsh, who struck a half-century, the Australian batting line-up appeared agitated. Australia were dismissed for 140 runs to give the hosts a comfortable 56-run victory. Hayden Walsh was the star with the ball as he picked three wickets to outsmart the Australian batters.

With the series on the line for Australia, we can expect a fightback from them whereas West Indies would be high on confidence and would stick with their plans to seal off the series.

Pitch Report

The pitch at the Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium offers a good amount of assistance to the batters in the initial stages. However, as the game progresses, the wicket gets a bit slower making it difficult for the batsmen to score runs.

The team winning the toss would most probably opt to bat first.
