At Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday, Team India will take on the reigning champions, Australia, in the opening match of the ICC ODI Cricket World Cup 2023. Australia won the World Cup match between the two teams in Chennai in 1987 by a margin of just one run.

Shubman Gill, the No. 2 hitter in the world, has dengue fever, which is a concern for Rohit Sharma's team. In the event that Gill is unable to play, Suryakumar Yadav is anticipated to replace Gill in the starting lineup, and Ishan Kishan would advance up the order to open the innings with Rohit Sharma, his Mumbai Indians teammate.
