The Indian cricket team will look to avoid their second successive clean-sweep in ODIs when they take on Australia in the final match of the three-match ODI series at the Manuka Oval in Canberra on Wednesday.
The Men in Blue had suffered a similar fate in their last ODI series against the Kiwis in New Zealand earlier this year.
If Australia win the final match, it will be their whitewash against India at home in nearly 20 years. Watch India vs Australia 3rd ODI on live streaming.
The last time the visitors had suffered a clean sweep against the Aussies was in 1999-2000, when they had lost all their four games in a triangular series that also featured arch-rivals Pakistan.
India have been on the back foot throughout this ODI series with their bowling department failing massively. Despite having the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami in their ranks, India haven't been able to restrict Australia within 370 on both the previous occasions.
Hence, India have succumbed to a 66-run and 51-run defeat respectively, despite their batting line-up tallying over 300 while chasing on both the occasions.
