IND vs AUS 2nd Test LIVE: After KL Rahul survived double scare from Scott Boland, he did immensely well to get his composure back and score a few runs. On the other hand Shubman Gill looked mighty solid as India reached 42/1. In fat, the duo brought up the fifty partnership soon.
Team India won the toss and opted to bat first. Rohit Sharma went in with three changes from the Perth Test. Rohit came in for Devdutt Padikkal, Shubman Gill for Dhruv Jurel, and R Ashwin came in for Washington Sundar.
It has been over 10 days since Team India scripted history in Perth and took a 1-0 lead in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT). It was a magical effort by Jasprit Bumrah and his boys, but now the incumbent skipper returns in Rohit Sharma. However, he hasn’t returned as an opener, sacrificing his opening spot to the successful opening duo of KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal. A green top surface awaits in Adelaide, where Australian skipper Pat Cummins would be rearing to make amends.
