India vs Australia, 2nd ODI, Match Prediction
India last lost an ODI game at Adelaide in 2008. Overall, India has won 9 of 15 games at this venue, making it one of its most successful ODI venues. The Indian team is undergoing a transition, and Shubman Gill made his ODI captaincy debut in the first game. He became only the second Indian captain to lose their first game as captain in all formats.
The Indian batters will have to punch above their weight in this game to have a chance, which they completely failed to do in the first game. Australia doesn’t need to do anything new to get the upper hand. They have won seven out of the last 10 games in Adelaide and might get an unassailable lead in this game.
