The third and final ODI between India and Australia will be played today, March 22, in Chennai. The match will start at 1:30 pm. The three-match series is now level 1-1. While India won the first ODI in Mumbai by five wickets, Australia defeated the hosts by 10 wickets in the second ODI at Vishakhapatnam.
Meanwhile, the rivalry between India and Australia on the cricket field has always been quite bitter but star batsman Virat Kohli believes that the behaviour of the players has gotten better with time thanks to the Indian Premier League (IPL).
In a recent conversation with South Africa legend and his former Royal Challengers Bangalore teammate AB De Villiers, Kohli said that the competitiveness is still quite there between the two sides but the sledging is not ‘nasty’ thanks to the time that the players have spent with each other as part of various IPL teams.
