The Indian captain will continue to feature at the number three slot. The 29-year-old scored his 36th, 37th, and 38th ODI hundreds of his career in the first three games of the series. He has already amassed 420 runs in the series and has looked simply phenomenal with the bat.

Ambati Rayudu finally played a knock that has eluded him for a long time. The 33-year-old became the first batsman from outside the top three to score an ODI hundred for India since January 2017. Rayudu will most likely occupy the No.4 slot.

The former Indian captain is going through a rough patch. With the highest score of only 36 in his last 10 ODIs, Dhoni is struggling for runs at the moment. With the 2019 World Cup in mind, India would want to continue with Dhoni and expect him to get back to his best.
