The Australia cricket team toured India from February and March 2019 to play two Twenty20 International (T20I) and five One Day International (ODI) matches.[1][2][3] The ODI fixtures were part of both teams' preparation for the 2019 Cricket World Cup.[4] Australia won the T20I series 2–0, their first T20I series win against India.[5]
India won the first two ODIs of the series, and with their victory in the second match, registered their 500th win in the format.[6] India became the second team, after Australia, to record 500 wins in ODIs.[7] Despite losing the first two matches, Australia went on to win the ODI series 3–2.[8] It was the first time that Australia had won an ODI series in India since 2009.[9] It was also the first series loss for India at home since losing 2–3 to South Africa in October 2015, and Virat Kohli's first ODI series loss at home.[10]
Shaun Marsh was included in Australia's ODI squad, with D'Arcy Short named as cover for Marsh.[11] Andrew Tye replaced Kane Richardson in Australia's ODI squad after Richardson was ruled out due to injury.[12]
Siddarth Kaul was selected for first two ODIs, with Bhuvneshwar Kumar replacing him for remaining three ODIs in India's ODI squad.[13] Ahead of the tour, Hardik Pandya was ruled out of India's squads due to injury. Ravindra Jadeja replaced him in India's ODI squad,[14] but no replacement was made in their T20I squad.[15] MS Dhoni was rested for the final two ODIs of the series, with Rishabh Pant named as the wicket-keeper in India's squad in his place.[16]
