Key Insights on India’s Venue-Wise ODI Performance Against All Teams in Australia

India’s Most Favorable ODI Grounds Down Under

Adelaide Oval has an excellent overall record for India, with 9 wins in 16 ODIs against all teams.

The high overall win rate at Adelaide is bolstered by success against touring sides, as the head-to-head record against Australia alone is tougher (2 wins in 7 matches).

The venue’s historical average first-innings score sits around 230-250, though the modern par score is closer to 270-300.

Bellerive Oval, Hobart (The Chasing Fortress) has a strong positive memory, being the site of a famous tri-series match where India successfully chased 321 runs against Sri Lanka in just 36.4 overs.

Bellerive Oval’s generally flat pitch makes it a favorable venue for chasing teams.

Challenging Pace and Bounce ODI Venues

The Gabba, Brisbane stands as an historical Australian fortress for India, with only two victories in seven ODIs.

The Gabba pitch is famous for its extra pace and steep bounce, which traditionally exploits a common Indian weakness against the short ball early in a tour.

Perth (WACA/Optus Stadium) maintains a focus on raw pace, carry, and bounce, and India has a historically difficult time in Perth.

Matches in Perth are often medium-to-low scoring (Optus ODI average 1st Innings is lower than Adelaide and SCG).

The Neutral Battleground and Spin-Friendly SCG

The SCG surface is unique in Australia as it is typically the most conducive to spin bowling, especially as the game progresses and the pitch wears, which plays more to India’s strengths compared to Brisbane and Perth.

The SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground), with 32 matches, is where India has gained the most experience.

The SCG’s mid-range win rate suggests it acts as a true neutral battleground.
