IND vs AUS Dream11 Prediction 5th Test
The last match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy being played between Australia and India will be played in Sydney. Australia performed brilliantly in the Melbourne Test match and won against the Indian team by 184 runs. Australia has taken a 2-1 lead in the series with the win. Captain Pat Cummins was the Player of the Match in this match. He has taken 6 wickets and contributed an important 90 runs. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah once again impressed with his bowling from the Indian team.
Nitish Kumar Reddy, Yashasvi Jaiswal have performed well with the bat. The poor form of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma has been a topic of discussion in this series. The team expects a good performance from them in the Sydney Test. Due to the defeat in the Boxing Day Test match, the Indian team's chances of reaching the WTC final have also diminished considerably. The Indian team would like to draw the series by winning this last match.

IND vs AUS Pitch Report
A day before the Test match, there was some grass on the pitch of Sydney Cricket Ground. Two Sheffield Shield matches have been played on this pitch this season. The feedback that Australian cricket team captain Pat Cummins has received from those 2 matches is that it has been a 'good cricketing wicket', with enough opportunities for bowlers. Especially that it has a little more speed.
Initially it will be favorable for batting. Due to this, the batsmen will get a chance to settle at the crease and score runs. However, as the match progresses, especially on the fourth and fifth day, spinners are likely to get the advantage. The grass of the pitch has been cut to about 7 mm. Heavy rolling has been done to maintain moisture and grass cover.
