Preview
After rain abandoned the game in Canberra, Team India prepares to face Australia in the 2nd T20I match in Melbourne on Friday, October 31. However, the weather seems to be showing kindness towards both teams as rain once again is likely to play spoilsport at the iconic venue
While the tickets for the second T20I have been sold out, fans would hope to see some action at the MCG after the opening game disappointment.
Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav regained his mojo with the bat in the opening match with an unbeaten knock of 39 runs. He would hope for another good outing.
Abhishek Sharra scored only 19 runs in the first T20I and would aim to give the team a blazing start yet again. Australia would want to beat the No 1 India, highlighting their credentials ahead of the 2026 T20 World Cup.
