<p>The Indian team's practise session Friday was called off due to rain, leaving the Virat Kohli-led side with only one day to train ahead of Sunday's big-ticket World Cup showdown with Australia here.</p>
<p>India travelled to London from Southampton on Thursday, a day after beating South Africa by six wickets in their tournament opener.</p>
<p>Rain had also forced India to cancel their optional practice on the eve of the game against South Africa at the Hampshire Bowl.</p>
<p>The two-time winners face a formidable opponent in defending champions Australia, who are on a 10-match winning streak, which began in India only where they overcame a 0-2 deficit to win the five-match series 3-2.</p>
<p>Virat Kohli had yesterday taken to Instagram to post a picture of the Indian team on the road travelling to London on the team bus.&nbsp;</p>
