Highest run-scorers in India vs Australia ODIs

Highest run-scorers in India vs Australia ODIs

With the Test rivalry done and dusted, with Virat Kohli’s men creating a legacy of their own on Australian soil, it is time for a shift of formats. After drawing the rain-hit T20I series 1-1 and dominating the Test series 2-1, the two sides will focus their attention towards ODIs. While the three-match series might seem of little consequence in the aftermath of the historic Test series where the stakes were high, it carries much greater consequence because it has the first three of thirteen matches India plays before their first World Cup encounter.

The two sides have always battled out tough in the white-ball formats. The home advantage has often been neutralized given the dynamic nature of the two sides over the years. With the ODI series about to begin, we look at the highest run-scorers in the contests between the two teams over the years in the format.
