India found a positive in the form of Suryakumar Yadav, who scored a risk-free fifty. In the bowling department, Mohammad Shami outclassed everyone with a five-wicket haul which helped India bundle out Australia for a modest total of 276 runs. With this victory, India are now the number one ranked team across formats.
It will be a do-or-die match for Australia as they are trailing in the series. A lot will depend on David Warner, Steve Smith, and Marnus Labuschagne's form as Glenn Maxwell's availability is still unknown.
Mitchell Starc is unlikely to feature in the second ODI as well.

The Indore pitch is generally known for its short boundaries and batting-friendly surface. The batters of both teams will be eyeing big scores.
India might consider one change, with Jasprit Bumrah making way for Mohammed Siraj to manage the former's workload.
Teams will prefer to bowl first in the match. The last time India played at Holkar Stadium, they scored a gigantic 385 runs in 50 overs against New Zealand in January 2023.
India have a perfect opportunity for redemption by gain an unassailable lead in Indore itself as they lost to Australia in the ODI series played in March earlier this year. However, Australia know how to fight back in crunch situations.
