The Indian cricket team is now busy preparing for the second Test against the Australian delegation. The second game of the series will begin in Adelaide on December 6. Meanwhile, it’s a good thing for India that Rohit Sharma is back as captain and Shubman Gill is back from injury. This means the entire team is fully healthy and ready to compete. But something to note here is that the start time of the second game is different from the time of the first game. Since this will be a day-night test, changes have been made to it. Before the game starts, you should know the start time of the second game.
India pink ball Test will start at 9.30 am
If you are following the India vs Australia Test series, then you will know that the first match starts at 7.50 am India time. But now the game will not be held at this time. The second match will be played with pink ball and will be a day-night Test. When the schedule of this series was announced, it was clearly stated that the match will be played at 9.30 am India time. When India has a Test match, the day’s match starts at 9.30. Now the day-night Test in Australia will be played throughout the day in India. This means the game will start at 9:30am and run until around 5:30pm. It was night time in Australia. This means you don’t have to wake up very early in the morning for your second game. You can fully enjoy the game even after getting up comfortably.
Team India to play day-night Test in Australia for second time
The Indian team hasn’t played many Tests during the day and night, so it’s not something they’re used to. Team India will play a day-night Test on foreign soil for the second time in its Test cricket history. But also remember that in India’s first pink-ball Test against Australia, it had to face defeat. But all three pink-ball Tests at home were won by India. Not only this, the morale of the Indian team is high as they won the first game of the series without Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. Australia, on the other hand, plays pink-ball Tests from time to time, so they have a habit of playing with this ball. Regardless, Australia will be looking for revenge after their first defeat, so care must be taken.
Indian team ready to win
The return of Rohit Sharma, the captain of the Indian team and one of the most devastating openers in the world, is the biggest and best news for him. The way Rohit Sharma was batting in Test matches, everyone knew that if he could hold on for just a little while, he would take the game away from Australia. There is also good news about Shubman Gill’s health. Shubman Gill is also keen to score runs against Australia. They also want to prove themselves. That said, overall, this game has the potential to be very interesting no matter who wins or loses.
