IND vs AUS 2nd ODI: Team Previews

India Preview

The Indian team was illuminated with astounding performances from their players that helped them to register a glorious seven-wicket win over the Aussies. In the bowling department, Mohammed Shami had a memorable day as he registered a five-fer on the grounds of Mohali. Siraj was rested to manage his workload this gave a nod to Shami who didn’t leave the chance & returned with flying colors.

On the other hand, Shardul Tahkur had a day to forget where he conceded 78 runs without scalping any wickets. With India’s No. 8 position on display, Shami looks ahead in the race than Shardul at this point.

Another major plus point for India was the performance of Suryakumar Yadav who displayed determination when required the most. Although KL Rahul and Shubman Gill provided strong support, SKY’s 49-ball 50 was key in India’s chase of 277 runs.

Indian team looks perfect at this moment & they just need to do the things they have done in the first ODI. The only change they will make in the second ODI is reintroducing Mohammed Siraj to the lineup to test him against Australia’s prolific batters. If that happens, Shardul may have to make room for him.

Australia Preview

Coming to Australia, they had a good start on the grounds of Mohali as opener David Warner provided the team with an ideal start. But the batter failed to get good support from batters at the other end with Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Cameron Green, and Josh Inglis all failing to convert their starts into good scores. This made it difficult for the batters to guide Australia close to the 300-run mark.

Later, their bowling unit comprising world-class bowls failed to deliver in front of mighty Indian batters. Except for Cummins (1-44) & Zampa (2-57), none of their bowlers could impress with the ball making their bowling attack look toothless.

Tarvis Head, Starc & Maxwell’s injuries are another big concern for the Australian lineup. They might include Hazlewood in place of Starc to strengthen their bowling order. They might rest Matthew Short who failed to scalp quick wickets in Mohali.
