Ind vs aus playing 11 prediction: The first semi -final of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 will be played between India and Australia at 2.30 pm today. Before the semi -finals played at Dubai International Stadium, Team India captain Rohit Sharma has said that he has made a special strategy to give a tough competition to Australia. Team India has previously won all three matches of the stage group. Team India does not want to leave any stone unturned to win this match after facing defeat in the 2023 World Cup against Australia.
In the last match, Team India gave four spinners a chance against New Zealand at the playing XI. This formula proved suitable for winning. Varun Chakraborty took five, Kuldeep Yadav took two, while Ravindra Jadeja and Akshar Patel took one wicket each.
An accurate strategy is needed to win the semi -finals.
Asked if Team India would land in the semi -finals against Australia with four spinners, Rohit Sharma said, “We have to think, if we get down with four spinners, we have to decide what their position will be.” We know how to play against Australia. We know what will be effective and what not. Let us think what will be the right combination. Varun Chakraborty showed what he can do on the field. Now we have to think what will be the right combination. He played only one match in the Champions Trophy and performed brilliantly. When he is in form, he takes five wickets in a match. We have to select Australia’s fast -suited bowlers.
Will there be any change in winning sports combinations?
After winning three consecutive matches, Rohit Sharma will know whether there will be any change in his winning playing combination at 2 pm. Team India may once again enter the semi -finals with four spinners.
Team India’s possible playing 11: Rohit Sharma (captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Akshar Patel, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakraborty and Mohammed Shami.
Australia’s playing 11: Travis Head, Josh English (wicketkeeper), Steve Smith (Captain), Marnas Labushen, Cooper Konoli, Alex Carrie, Glenn Maxwell, Ben Dwarshis, Nathan Alice, Spencer Johnson and Adam Zampa
