IND vs AUS: Top 3 batters to watch out for in India vs Australia Champions Trophy Semi-final 1

India will take on Australia in the semi-final 1 of the Champions Trophy 2025 at the Dubai International Stadium, Dubai, on March 4. The game will be super exciting as both teams have had a good tournament so far. While India were the table topers with wins in all the games, Australia were in the second position because one game got washed out due to rain. Well, the India vs Australia contest will be thrilling as well, and since it's an ICC event, the excitement doubles up. 

It would be interesting to see the battles between both the teams as they have some world-class batters in their squads. The last time they battled out against each other was during the 2023 ODI World Cup final where the Kangaroos defeated the Men in Blue by six wickets and lifted the trophy. However, India, especially the batters, will have a golden chance to avenge that heartbreaking loss by beating Australia in the Champions Trophy 2025 semi-final.

Here are the 3 batters to watch out for in India vs Australia Champions Trophy Semi-final 1:

3. Shreyas Iyer

India's star middle-order batter, Shreyas Iyer, has been looking in great touch in the ongoing Dhampions Trophy 2025 so far. He has been featured in all three group stage matches of the Indian team and has scored 150 runs at an average of 50. He is the highest run-scorer in the Indian team so far and will be definitely a batter to watch out for during the semi-final clash.

2. Travis Head

Australia's destructive opener, Travis Head, has tremendous records against the Indian team, especially in the ICC events. Head has played 2 matches so far in the Champions Trophy 2025 and has scored 65 runs. Australia's one match was washed out against South Africa, while the contest against Afghanistan was also interrupted due to rain. Head will be the biggest threat for the Indian bowlers.

1. Virat Kohli

The modern-day great, Virat Kohli, has gained his form at the right time. The Indian veteran smashed a match-winning century against Pakistan. He is the third-highest Indian run-scorer in the tournament so far, with 133 runs in three matches. If Kohli gets set in the middle, he will be huge trouble for the Australian bowlers.
