Indian Batsmen Did Not Walk In Front Of Australia
In the second ODI between India and Australia, when Team India came on the field to bat, both the openers returned to the pavilion cheaply. Rohit Sharma scored 13 runs, while Shubman Gill could not open his account.
After this, Suryakumar Yadav returned to the pavilion on 0 runs, while vice-captain Hardik Pandya scored only 1. There were a lot of expectations from Virat Kohli in the middle overs, but only 31 runs could come out of his bat. Kohli also hit four fours during his innings.
In the end, Ravindra Jadeja was dismissed after playing a struggling inning of 16 runs, while Akshar Patel remained unbeaten after scoring 29 runs. In this match from Australia, Mitchell Starc took five wickets, Sean Abbott took three wickets, and Nathan took two wickets.
Australia Won By 10 Wickets
The start was perfect when Australia came on the field to chase the target of 118 runs in the second ODI between India and Australia. Openers Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh made a blistering start. Both stood till the end and won Australia. Head scored an unbeaten 51, which included ten fours, while Marsh scored an unbeaten 66 with the help of 6 fours and six sixes.
Rohit Sharma Made A Big Blunder
It is worth mentioning that Rohit Sharma made a big blunder in this match, due to which the team had to pay with defeat. The main reason for India’s defeat was the captain himself because he was not doing anything in ODIs, yet he was still playing. Ishan should have been kept in his place, or Sanju should have been added to the team.
