Second Test match between India and Australia: The Australian team had to face a crushing defeat by 295 runs in the first test match against India. Nobody expected this defeat, because the Indian team had reached there after losing three Tests against New Zealand at home. Apart from this, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill also did not play in the first Test. In such a situation, the Indian team had done a great job of winning under the captaincy of Jasprit Bumrah. Now the second match between both teams will begin from December 6 at the Adelaide field. India’s regular captain Rohit will be back in this Test. Australia has also started making strategies to win the second Test.
The Australian coach made a great statement about the team
According to ESPNcricinfo report, Australia head coach Andrew McDonald has confirmed that Australia will have the same team in the second Test against India in Adelaide and there will be no changes in it. But after the loss against India, there are some issues regarding Mitchell Marsh’s fitness. This may cause changes in the playing eleven. The team Australia selected for the first test against India. 13 players were included in it.
Possibility of change in the game of 11
Coach Andrew McDonald said the same people in that dressing room will be in Adelaide. But there is no chance of the same playing eleven that played in the first Test playing in the second Test. He didn’t seem committed to this. He said we’ll figure it out as we go, but like I said, the team that’s there will be in Adelaide.
On the other hand, Marnus Labuschagne and Usman Khawaja are also not performing well. José Inglés waits his turn on the bench. Maybe the Australian team will give him a chance in the eleven of the second test match. Currently, ahead of the second Test, the Australian team will gather for a net session in Adelaide.
Mitchell Marsh bowled 17 overs
Apart from this, Mitchell Marsh bowled 17 overs in the first Test match and took a total of three wickets, the most in a match in the last three years. For him, the coach said we will wait and see. Due to Marsh’s fitness, Australia had very few bowling options in Perth. While the Indian bowlers restricted Australia to 104 and 238 in both the innings.
