IND vs AUS, 2nd ODI HIGHLIGHTS: India Beat Australia By 36 Runs To Level Series 1-1 At Rajkot

Background

New Delhi: Team India will look to reverse their fortunes and leave behind the drubbing they faced in the ODI series opener at Mumbai to draw level in the second encounter against Australia set to be played at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium at Rajkot on Friday.

The Men in Blue will go into the second ODI on the back of a humiliating  10-wicket defeat at the Wankhede. The hosts will be without wicket-keeper batter Rishabh Pant in the match where they would be keen to prevent their second straight ODI series loss against Australia at home.

The All-India Senior Selection Committee has named KS Bharat as the back-up wicket-keeper for the 2nd ODI in Rajkot against Australia. The call was taken after Rishabh Pant flew to Bengaluru to undergo his rehabilitation protocol in National Cricket Academy.

Full Squads:

India: Virat Kohli (c), Rohit Sharma (vc), Rishabh Pant (wk), Jasprit Bumrah, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shikhar Dhawan, Shivam Dube, Shreyas Iyer, Ravindra Jadeja, Kedar Jadhav, Manish Pandey, KL Rahul, Navdeep Saini, Mohammed Shami, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav

Australia: Aaron Finch (c), Alex Carey (vc & wk), Pat Cummins (vc), Ashton Agar, Peter Handscomb, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne, Kane Richardson, D'Arcy Short, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Ashton Turner, David Warner, Adam Zampa
