Shaun Marsh scored a maiden ODI century to put Australia in a superb position to take a 3-2 lead in their ODI series in Hyderabad. Marsh made 112 at a run a ball and his side went on to post a daunting total of 350-4 from their 50 overs.

Shaun's father Geff also played one day cricket for Australia and they are now the 1st father and son duo to have scored an ODI century.

Shane Watson also looked in extremely good nick he made a well composed 93 while Cameron White hit a half century of just 31 balls which included 5 sixes as Australia took charge of game 5.

India were 2-1 up in the series but Australia turned in a spirited performance in the last match in Mohali to square the series.

Two years ago these two teams also played an ODI in Hyderabad and Australia came out on top on that occasion they batted 1st and posted a decent total of 290.

If you are a Betting person then you would do well to back Australia to win this game.
