Stats: Batsmen with the best strike rate in India vs Australia ODIs

Adam Gilchrist (L) and Andrew Symonds have the best batting strike rate in the matches against India

Here is a list of batsmen with the best batting strike rate in the One-Day International matches between India and Australia. Adam Gilchrist and Andrew Symonds are way ahead of the rest of the pack in this category.

Only batsmen who have scored a minimum of 1000 runs in the matches between the both sides are taken into consideration. That could explain the absence of Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni from the top five. Yuvraj is just 38 short of the 1000-run mark and with a strike rate of 85.35, it is only a matter of time before the dashing southpaw makes the list.

Meanwhile, Dhoni, with 840 runs, is within the touching distance too. But his strike rate is at an astonishing low of 71.91 and that needs some taking.
