ENG vs AUS 1st ODI Betting Odds & Predictions

The very first of the five ODIs to be played between England as well as Australia is scheduled to take place on 3 September (Thursday) in Southampton.

Australia has been outplayed by England in T20I by a margin of merely 5 runs. This has undoubtedly shifted the pendulum in the favor of the England team in this upcoming 1st ODI between these teams. Since the home team of England is currently seen in its full swing, it is up to the Aussies side to avenge the recent losses and redeem its lost glory with some sterling performance in the upcoming ODIs, with the first of 5 One Day International matches scheduled to be played on 3 September, 2015 at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Southampton. Looking at some of the recent performances of the English cricket team, Aussies must already start to hear some alarm bells ringing. This 5 match ODI is also Australia’s chance to redeem its trembling stature.

Match Schedule and Pitch Condition

The most recent match to be played at this stadium was an ODI match between Lancashire as well as Hampshire teams on 17 August, 2015 as a part of the Royal London One- Day Cup and the pitch proved to be equally in favor of both the batting and bowling sides. Looking at the pitch conditions and the previous match records, winner of the toss will most certainly decide to bat first.
