Hello and welcome to our coverage of the first ODI between Australia and India in Perth, where Mitch Marsh has sent Shubman Gill\u2019s team in to bat.<\/p>\n
That means ageing warriors Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will get an early look at what is likely to be a bouncy Perth pitch, albeit with plenty of value for shots.<\/p>\n
Skies are overcast in Perth and there is the prospect of some early movement. Gill would also have bowled first.<\/p>\n
Without Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood will be hoping to make some early inroads. Mitch Owen and Matt Renshaw both get ODI debuts for Australia in the absence of Cameron Green, while Matt Kuhnemann\u2019s left-arm spin subs for Adam Zampa, who is at home on the other side of the country awaiting the birth of his second child.<\/p>\n
