The Indian team already has an upper hand over Australia in the five-game ODI series. Virat Kohli and men enjoy a 2-0 lead over Australia and now the team heads to Ranchi for the third game. After having a good time at MS Dhoni’s place last evening, the team is now back to business gearing up for the third ODI. MS Dhoni, Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja and Bhuvneshwar Kumar sweating it out at the nets and looked quite determined to put their best foot forward for the game tomorrow.

All eyes will be set on MS Dhoni, as the fans in Ranchi would surely want the local hero to score big in the match tomorrow. India's two victories -- by six wickets and eight runs -- weren't exactly convincing but pulling off close matches under pressure will certainly add to the confidence. The pictures of India’s practice session were shared on the official handle of the BCCI. “Gearing up for Ranchi - 📸📸 from #TeamIndia's training session before the 3rd ODI against Australia #INDvAUS @Paytm,” read the caption of the snaps.
