On Wednesday, India and Australia will take on each other in the final ODI of the three-match series at the Saurashtra Cricket Association stadium in Rajkot. India, having taken an unassailable 2-0 lead, would be keen to accomplish a whitewash over the visitors. Meanwhile, Australia would be desperate to break their five-match losing streak in ODIs and secure a morale-boosting win before the all-important World Cup. 

As both teams gear up for a fascinating contest, let's see how the venue's pitch is expected to play throughout the game. 


Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium Rajkot Pitch Report 

The surface at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot traditionally assists batters, with its even pace and bounce aiding in stroke play. The track has been a paradise for the batters, as evident from the average scoring rate of 6.04 at the venue. 

Although there won't be anything for the pacers, the spinners will get a hint of turn off the deck, particularly in the latter half of the game. So, it will be a slightly dry track, which could become tricky for batting, with the ball turning significantly later in the evening. Also, considering the teams batting first have won all three games here, the toss-winning side will likely opt to bat first and set a target.
