Shubman Gill in 2023:

Shubman Gill didn't get the best start but came back stronger in his third match in 2023. He played his first match against Sri Lanka in Wankhade. Gill only managed to score 7 runs in the 1st T20I of the series. He lost his wicket for only 5 runs in the 2nd T20I. Gill then upped the game as he scored 46 runs in the third T20I.

Gill's domination started after that. He smashed 70 runs in the 1st ODI of the ODI series against the same opposition. Shubman got out unluckily for 21 runs in the 2nd ODI but He completed his first ton in the 3rd ODI. Gill scored 116 runs in 97 deliveries with 14 fours & 2 sixes in Thiruvananthapuram.

Shubman Gill scored a massive double ton against New Zealand in the very next match of his century. He smashed 208 runs in 149 runs with 19 fours & 9 sixes. A masterclass from young Gill who set the bar of his level. He remained not out & scored 40 runs in the next match. Gill pulled everyone's attention once again in his next match as he scored another brilliant century. Shubman smashed 112 runs in 78 deliveries with 13 fours & 5 massive sixes. Gill scored another century, his first in T20I in a series against New Zealand. He scored 126 runs and remained not out in 63 deliveries with 12 fours & 7 sixes.

128 runs inning against Australia:

Gill replaced Kl Rahul in the 3rd Test against Australia but failed to contribute much to India. Indian Fans doubted him as they thought replacing Rahul was not a good decision as Rahul got experience despite his poor form. Shubman Gill scored the century and everything changed once again. He scored 128 runs in 235 deliveries.

Shubman Gill has played 15 innings till now this year. He has scored 923 runs with an average of 71 including 5 centuries, 1 half-century & 1 double-century.

India Women vs South Africa Women Match Prediction

India and South Africa are expected to put their best foot forward in the upcoming clash of the Women’s World Cup 2025, as both teams look to gain an advantage early in the tournament. Both teams are likely to rely on their key players to deliver, but the match could depend on how well the top and middle order batters handle pressure and the bowlers control the middle overs.

Given the head-to-head record in ODIs and the last five meetings between the two sides, India will start as favourites to continue their winning streak. However, South Africa are expected to put up a good fight and could spring a surprise if their key batters fire and their bowlers execute disciplined plans, especially in the powerplay and middle order.

India vs West Indies Test series is currently in progress, with India taking a 1-0 lead after the first match. In the opening match, West Indies won the toss and chose to bat first, but Team India's bowlers quickly put them on the back foot, dismissing the Caribbean side for just 162 runs in their first innings. India then took to the crease and declared at 448 for 5, securing a commanding first-innings lead of 286 runs. In their second innings, the West Indies struggled again and were bowled out for 146, handing India a comprehensive victory by an innings and 140 runs. 

The second and final Test will be held at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, starting on October 9th. Team India will aim to complete a series sweep, while the West Indies will look to level the contest.

So, before the second Test, let's take a look at the result of every India vs West Indies Test series.

India vs West Indies: Head-to-head stats in Tests

In recent years, India have the wood over West Indies as far as Test cricket is concerned. While West Indies dominated the rivalry in the 70s and 80s, India have reduced the gap with their own era of dominance. The Men in Blue haven’t lost a Test match to Wi in 23 years. India’s last Test defeat in the IND vs WI series came in May 2002. They have won the last 9 Test series in a row, without losing a single Test.

India vs West Indies: Last series result

In the ongoing two Test series, India wrapped up the first Test against West Indies by an innings and 140 runs on day three at the Narendra Modi Stadium on October 6, Saturday. The visitors had scored 162 runs in the first innings. In reply, India had declared its first innings at 448-5 with a lead of 286 runs.

West Indies performed even worse in their second innings being bowled out for 146 in 45.1 overs. Vice-captain Ravindra Jadeja, India's most valuable player in red ball cricket ran displayed his all-round credentials capping his unbeaten hundred with a four wicket haul (4 for 54).

After a heated Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, which saw Australia regain the coveted trophy after almost a decade by beating India 3-1 in the five-match series, the Men in Blue are all set for another down-under tour against the Aussies, this time for a three-match ODI and a five-match T20 series. The series will kick off on Sunday, October 19, with the first ODI at Optus Stadium in Perth.

 Both teams have announced their squads for the ODIs, with India naming Shubman Gill as the new skipper of the format, replacing Rohit Sharma, who will now play as a batter. Australia’s regular ODI skipper Pat Cummins has also decided to sit out of the series to focus on the Ashes. Mitchell Marsh will lead Australia in the absence of Cummins.

So, before the India vs Australia series to begin, let's take a look at the result of every ODI series between India and Australia.

India vs Australia: Head-to-head stats in ODIs

Speaking of the history, Australia dominate the head-to-head record in ODIs with 84 victories in 152 ODI matches. 58 games went in India’s favour while 10 clashes were washed out due to rain or other external factors. 

This record must give the Aussies a lot of confidence, but they must not forget India’s recent rise in ODI cricket. With both teams having services of world-class batsmen, fantastic bowlers and scintillating fielders, a great tussle is on the cards.

India vs Australia: Last series result

The last encounter between India and Australia in an ODI was during the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 semi-final in Dubai.

Batting first, Australia were bowled out for 264 in 49.3 overs and India chased it down with 11 balls to spare. Besides Kohli’s 98-ball knock, Shreyas Iyer made 45 while KL Rahul and Hardik Pandya chipped in with 42 and 28 respectively in the first semifinal. Mohammed Shami (3/38) grabbed three wickets while Varun Chakravarthy and Ravindra Jadeja took two wickets apiece.

India vs Australia: Full Series Results

A total of 27 players have captained the Indian ODI Cricket team. The very first ODI captain of the Indian cricket team was Ajit Wadekar. He captained the ODI team in 1974 and played just 2 matches as captain. Unfortunately, India lost both of them. Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma are among the most successful Indian captains.

In any sport, including cricket, captaincy is perhaps the most important role that influences the overall performance of the entire team. Here is the cricket facts of every ODI captain of Indian Men's Cricket team and their records.

Cricket facts: Every ODI captain of India and their records (men’s)

First ODI captain

It all started in the year 1974 when India played their first ODI match against England. Ajit Wadekar, who had earlier been a successful captain for India in Tests, was named captain of India's first ODI team.

Wadekar played an amazing knock of 67 runs, only to end up on the losing side. He couldn't do well in the next match and eventually retired right after the series. 

Wadekar was followed by Srinivasraghavan Venkataraghavan, who holds the remarkable record of captaining India in their first-ever ODI World Cup. He captained India in 7 matches and managed to win only one of those, against East Africa. His spin-bowling partner, Bishen Singh Bedi, then captained India in 4 matches, of which India lost 3. Gundappa Vishwanath also captained India in a solitary ODI match in 1980, which didn't go their way. 

India's ODI skipper in the 1980s

The earliest glory to India's ODI set-up came during the captaincy of Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev. Gavaskar took up the captaincy in 1980, 9 years after making his debut for the Indian team.

Of all the cricketers who had captained India in ODIs till then, Gavaskar had the highest win percentage (40%), which he had notched up after winning 14 out of 37 matches. That was also the highest number of matches ever captained by any single cricketer for India in ODIs, till then. 

Then came Kapil Dev, who took the reins of captaincy from Gavaskar in 1982. Within just one year of Dev's captaincy, India managed to pull off the unthinkable by defeating all the big guns of world cricket and claiming India's first-ever World Cup in 1983.

Before the World Cup, he had also led India to their first-ever ODI win against two-time World Champions, the West Indies. Dev continued to captain India for a decade, the most by any player till then, and notched up a then-highest win percentage of 54.16. He captained India in 74 ODIs, out of which India won 39.

Azharuddin-Tendulkar era

Following Kapil Dev, wicketkeeper-batter Syed Kirmani and all-rounder Mohinder Amarnath captained India in 1 match each. Ravi Shastri, Dilip Vengsarkar and Krishnamachari Srikkanth then went on to captain India in 11, 18 and 13 ODIs respectively, but India attained a stable phase in 1989 with Mohammad Azharuddin holding the reins of the team. He continued to lead India for 10 years, captaining the team in 174 matches, of which India won 90.

Sachin Tendulkar's era coincided with that of Azharuddin, as he took up the leadership role in the year 1996 and led India in 73 matches throughout a period of 3 years. Under Sachin, India managed to win 23 matches.

Ganguly-Dhoni era

Saurav Ganguly took charge of the team at a time when it was going through a tough phase following the allegations of match-fixing. He revived India's fortunes by introducing the growth of future greats of Indian cricket, Zaheer Khan, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh and one of India's most successful captains, MS Dhoni.

He developed one of India's finest teams that played fearless cricket. Ganguly led India to the final of the 2002 Champions Trophy.

Rahul Dravid captained India irregularly for a few years before taking it up full-time from Saurav Ganguly in 2005. Dravid finished with a decent win percentage of 56 before meeting a disastrous end in the form of the 2007 ICC World Cup debacle. He captained India in 79 matches, of which the team won 42.

MS Dhoni then led India through one of their greatest phases, as under him, India won one ICC World Cup and one Champions Trophy. He captained India in a record 200 ODIs, the highest by anyone to date. Of those, India managed to win 110 matches, with a win percentage of 59.52 under Dhoni's captaincy.

Kohli-Rohit era

Two of the greatest captains of Indian cricket, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, have put up exceptional shows as skippers of the Indian team. Although unable to win an ICC Trophy, Virat Kohli boasts of the highest win percentage among Indian ODI captains with more than 50 matches under their belt. Captaining India in 95 matches, Kohli has a win tally of 65, thus making for an effective win percentage of 70.43.

Rohit Sharma first captained India in Kohli's absence in the year 2017 and managed to win 42 out of the total 56 ODIs that the team has played in his captaincy. Rohit Sharma failed to lift the coveted World Cup for the third time in 2023.

India Women vs Pakistan Women Match Prediction

India Women started the tournament as expected with a win over co-hosts Sri Lanka. They were given a bit of a challenge by their opponents, however. They are expected to perform better as a unit as the tournament progresses and should have more than enough for Pakistan.

Pakistan Women suffered a shock defeat in their opening match of the tournament. Bangladesh Women repeated the exploits from their maiden ODI World Cup in 2022 by handing them a 7-wicket defeat in Colombo. Sidra Amin and Fatima Sana will need to lead from the front if they are to immediately bounce back from their shock loss.
