Australian cricket team in India in 2018–19

The Australia cricket team toured India from February and March 2019 to play two Twenty20 International (T20I) and five One Day International (ODI) matches. The ODI fixtures were part of both teams' preparation for the 2019 Cricket World Cup. Australia won the T20I series 2–0, their first T20I series win against India.

India won the first two ODIs of the series, and with their victory in the second match, registered their 500th win in the format. India became the second team, after Australia, to record 500 wins in ODIs. Despite losing the first two matches, Australia went on to win the ODI series 3–2. It was the first time that Australia had won an ODI series in India since 2009. It was also the first series loss for India at home since losing 2–3 to South Africa in October 2015, and Virat Kohli's first ODI series loss at home.
