India and Australia are just a few minutes away from the first ball of the iconic final of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023. In an update from the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Australian skipper Pat Cummins has won the toss and has decided to bowl first. Notably, it will be the first appearance for Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in an ODI World Cup, in the third edition of his ODI World Cup career.

Meanwhile, a few of the big records will also be at stake in this mega summit clash of the ODI World Cup 2023. With said that, here we’ll have a look at the 3 records which might be broken in the ODI World Cup 2023 between India and Australia.

1. David Warner to equal Rohit Sharma’s record for most centuries in ODI World Cup:

Currently, the veteran Australian opener David Warner is just 8 runs behind Indian skipper Rohit Sharma in the list of leading run-scorers in the ODI World Cup history. Apart from this, Warner (6 centuries) is also just a century behind Rohit Sharm’s record of 7 centuries.

The New South Wales veteran has a good chance to equal Rohit’s record for the most centuries and he can also surpass the latter in the list of leading run-scorers, in the history of the ODI World Cup.

2. David Warner to join the 7000+ runs club for Australia in ODIs

Apart from the batting heroics in his ODI World Cup career, the veteran Aussie Southpaw David Warner might also register his name in the history books of Australia’s ODI cricket history. He has scored 6925 runs, in 158 innings with an average of 45.55, hitting 22 centuries and 33 half-centuries.

If he manages to score 75 runs in the ODI World Cup 2023 final against India, the 37-year-old will become the sixth Australian batter, after former Australian skipper Steve Waugh in ODI cricket history to score 7,000 runs in his career.

3. Glenn Maxwell to become 7 Australian 1000 runs in ODI World Cup career

Star Australian batting all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has enjoyed a brilliant run of form with the bat so far in the ODI World Cup 2023, including a historic double century to win an all-important clash for Australia against Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, Maxwell is also on the verge of achieving a unique record as he is 101 runs away from scoring 1000 runs in the history of the ODI World Cup; if he manages to score his knock, he will be
