After a dominant performance by Australia, they will be looking to win the 2nd odi against the home side India which will make them a 3 match series win. However, India who looked under pressure from ball one in the first odi, must find a way to overcome their mistake and win this 2nd odi match to keep the series alive.
In last encounter in 2019, Australia who manage to win the series win in India are looking very confident to repeat the same here in 2020.
Australian fast bowler rattled the Indian batsmen and the Aussies opener crushed the Indian bowling attack to make 10 wicket victory in the first match.
Virat Kohli who had been dismissed by Adam Zampa four times, must do his homework against the Aussies wrist spinner. Rishab Pant who was blown to the helmet in the first ODI is likely to miss the second odi match against the Aussies.
