India’s performance on the grounds scheduled for ODIs & T20Is

ODIs

SCG has traditionally not been one of India's favorable grounds when it comes to the ODI format.

Out of the 20 games India has played on this ground, they have managed to win just five. The 20% win record becomes even worse when the opponents are Australia.

Out of these 20 matches, 17 were against Australia, and India have managed to win just two out of those 17. One of those victories came during the Commonwealth Bank Series of 2008 and the second during the 2016 tour.

India has played only two ODIs at the Manuka Oval and has lost both of them. The first one was against Sri Lanka during the CB series of 2008 and the second was against Australia in 2016.

India's win-loss ratio when it comes to ODIs played across Australia is also not that great. The side has won 39 out of 96 matches and lost 51, while two games ended up in a tie. Of these, only 13 wins have come against Australia from 51 matches.

T20Is

When it comes to T20I cricket, India has an impressive 100% win record at the SCG.

India has faced Australia twice at the venue, once in 2016 and once in 2018. The visitors ended up winning both the games comprehensively, the first one by seven wickets and the second by six wickets.

India's overall T20I record Down under is also pretty good. They have played nine matches in the country and won five, with one match getting abandoned.

The T20I match scheduled at Manuka Oval will be the first for India at that venue.
