After the ODI series ended in favour of Australia, it will be the chance for India to come back and win something from the tour. India could have turned the 4-1 result around in their favour but they were hit by some middle-order woes thanks to an inexperienced line-up and that proved to be their undoing.

They now have a slightly more experienced middle-order line-up, what with the return of Yuvraj Singh but will that be enough against what looks to be a powerful Aussie line-up remains to be seen.

Also returning to the squad is medium-pacer Ashish Nehra, who should add a bit more consistency to the Indian bowling while India will hope the likes of Gurkeerat Singh Mann and Rishi Dhawan have learnt something from the ODIs. The pair didn't have a great time with the bat throughout the series but Rishi did bowl a couple of economical spells.

Hardik Pandya is another all-rounder added to the side, although he is more known for his hard-hitting prowess than his medium-pace bowling. He will be an exciting addition, one that should hold India in a decent stead.

Australia will be led by Aaron Finch, who was under some pressure in the first few games of the ODI series but came back well to silence the critics. After his struggles in the first ODI, Finch came back with scores of 71 and 107 in two of those next four games.

He will have Steven Smith and David Warner for company but some of the other names in the line-up could well be those to watch out. Chris Lynn and Travis Head's form has been excellent during the recently concluded Big Bash League and deserve every bit of their place in the side, as does experienced quick Shaun Tait.

Shane Watson gets another chance but his time could be running out and will need to perform in this line-up of exciting, young cricketers which also has James Faulkner and Glenn Maxwell as the other spinners, while there's Mitchell Marsh waiting in the rans. 

It must be remembered teams could be looking to experiment with their squads as they build up to the World T20 that will be held in India in March.

Australia start favourites but there might not be much to choose from between these two.

Tips:

Australia to win: 8/15 (bet365[2])
