Australia winning in Indore gives both sides a fair bit to play for in Ahmedabad. They battled a turning track and came out on top, with Steve Smith back as captain and with a handful of players leaving after the first two Tests. Now, they have a chance of levelling the series, while also leaving India with some thinking to do as they look for a win to secure their spot in the WTC Finals.

IND vs AUS Key Players

Ravichandran Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin struggled to find rhythm in the third Test. With few runs to play with he was rather impatient, which hampered his style of bowling as he did not find enough consistency. With a key Test on hand, and with India needing a win, India will hope Ashwin can find his control and run through the Australian line-up.

Usman Khawaja

Usman Khawaja has been looking really against spin and is consistently getting good starts. With a Test to go though he would want to convert his starts to a big hundred, allowing Australia to get into a really good position.

IND vs AUS Match Tips

Australia were comprehensive in victory in the previous Test. The momentum is with them now as India struggle with their batting. However, with India still looking strong at home and with them in a must-win position they could come out with more fight.
