However, because of the consistent cloud cover, it will take a lot of time for the ground to dry up, thus the picture looks gloomy for a full-fledged 20-overs game. The playing elevens will therefore change accordingly.
Here's how the Playing 11 of India and Australia would look like
Both the teams experimented in the last game as it was only 8 overs a side and hence they looked to make one aspect of the game (either batting or bowling) strong. Australia played with hard-hitting bowling all-rounders Daniel Sams and Sean Abbott in place of their best bowler from the first game, Nathan Ellis and wicket-keeper batter Josh Inglis. The move didn’t work out as Sams turned out to be ultra expensive.
India on the other hand played with an extra batter in Rishabh Pant in place of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Jasprit Bumrah was also brought in for Umesh Yadav. Pant would have to make way for Bhuvi while the rest of the team will remain the same for India.
As for the Aussie, they will also look to get back to their winning team from the first game.
