IND vs AUS 2nd T20I: Rain Likely To Spoil MCG Showdown, Check Weather Forecast
After rain washed out the first India vs Australia T20I in Canberra, some seem concerned about the weather in Melbourne, where they meet next. Here's what the forecast says.
Rain has now spoiled two matches in India's latest tour of Australia, first the opening ODI in Perth, and now the first T20 in Canberra.
While the former game saw multiple interruptions, and eventually and inning reduction to 26 overs-a-side, the latter was completely called off, which is a real shame as the Men in Blue were dealing in boundaries.
India and Australia meet next on October 30, 2025 at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), but the weather forecast looks pretty discouraging.
IND vs AUS 2nd T20I: Weather Forecast
According to the weather forecast report for October 30, 2025 by AccuWeather, Melbourne has a 93% chance of precipitation (rain) overall.
However, the chances of precipitation drop to 25% in the evening in Melbourne that day as per AccuWeather, which is around when the next IND vs AUS T20 will be played.
Although a weather forecast is only an educated estimate, the way this series has gone so far doesn't leave much room for optimism. Nevertheless, how things exactly play out on Friday remains to be seen.
IND vs AUS: Head-To-Head At MCG
The Men in Blue don't have a very good record against Australia at the MCG. Across all formats, they have only won four times at the venue in 14 fixtures.

If we consider T20Is alone, IND and AUS have faced each other at the MCG four times, starting from all the way back in 2008, out of which India has won two.
Australia has defeted them only once here, with the last fixture, played in 2018, ending without any result.
