Australia take on India at Adelaide in a match expected to have a big bearing on the final table at the end of the season.
Australia have won 3 from 3 so far, but a win to India could put them ahead, so it is a very important game for both teams.
Australia are unchanged from the side that beat England, while India retain the lineup that triumphed over New Zealand.
Pitch: 94 - A high scoring match is in prospect on this well prepared wicket which is likely to give the batsmen the upper hand throughout. Nothing for the bowlers to enthuse about until very late in the match when the spinners may begin to find the ball turning slowly as the surface wears.
