Date and Time : 15th January 2019, 8:50 AM IST
Venue : Adelaide Oval, Adelaide
Team India are having a great tour of Australia so far and are yet to loose a series. They should make it count in the second ODI.
So far India have drawn the T20I series, while winning the Test series and now the ODI series is at stake.
The Bowlers were not good on Saturday and that’s why Australia piled up so many runs. So that department needs improvement while the Batsmen did OK and they too will be asked for a little more here.
On the other hand, Australia are struggling at their own backyard at the moment and they will eager for revenge against this current Indian side.
Australia did well on Saturday to pose India a greater challenge by posting a high total. But consistency will be required going into the second game which they are very capable of.
Australia have a good record against India in ODI’s and India would like to improve upon the fact.
Team news and possible line-ups
Australia are likely going to play the same XI as in the first ODI.
