However, if the Ahmedabad surface is predicted to suit fast bowlers more than slow bowlers, Marcus Stoinis or Cameron Green may gain a spot in the Australian Playing 11.

Digital Desk: In the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 final on Sunday (November 19) at Narendra Modi Stadium, Motera, Ahmedabad, captain Rohit Sharma hopes to make history against Australia, the five-time champions. India is making their fourth final appearance, and Australia is going for their sixth Cricket World Cup victory. The final will be played on the same field that held the India vs. Pakistan match, so even if early reports say the Ahmedabad wicket is hard and may suit hitters, there is a good chance the pitch may change in nature and appearance. Both sides are anticipated to play the same lineup that won their respective semifinal matches in terms of team chemistry.

Nonetheless, if the Ahmedabad wicket is to the spinners' advantage, India would be tempted to play R Ashwin, considering that Australia has two left-handers at the top. The choice about India's starting eleven against Australia was left open the night before the game by skipper Rohit Sharma. According to Rohit, the management has not yet selected the starting eleven and any of the fifteen players might be included in the starting lineup during the pre-game news conference.

However, if the Ahmedabad surface is predicted to suit fast bowlers more than slow bowlers, Marcus Stoinis or Cameron Green may gain a spot in the Australian Playing 11. Then Stoinis or Green are supposed to take the lead from Marnus Labuschagne.
