The third ODI between India and Australia commenced at the Chepauk in Chennai on March 22, 2023, and saw Virat Kohli grooving to Shah Rukh Khan’s hit song before the Indian team took the field.

Australia’s Steve Smith won the toss and chose to bat first in the series-deciding ODI with the 3-match series leveled at 1-1. Australia made two changes and Ashton Agar and David Warner came in for Cameron Green and Nathan Ellis.

Smith also revealed tha Green was missing from the XI due to being ill.

India went into the match with an unchanged XI and Rohit Sharma said at the toss: “We were looking to field first. If at all there will be help for the bowlers and we are playing three spinners, in these dry conditions hopefully we can maximize our spin options. It's an important game and the deciders are always interesting. It's always good to put us in this situation. It's a challenge for us to come back and play some good cricket under pressure.

Hopefully, we can put our best foot forward. Australia is a good team and you can always test your depth. We are playing with the same team. We were thinking of playing with four seamers but the conditions here are suitable for the spinners, so we go with three spinners.”

Ahead of taking the field, Virat Kohli was seen grooving to the song ‘Lungi Dance' from the movie Chennai Express which was playing at the ground. The captain was seen shaking his hips to the Shah Rukh Khan hit and the video of it has gone viral.
