Preparations for the second Test between India and Australia have now begun. The second game of the series will begin on December 6, but it may be the most important game. The match will be played in Adelaide in both day and night pink-ball formats. Beating Australia in a pink-ball Test is next to impossible. Many teams around the world are backing Australia on this matter. However, the team also lost a great game. It will certainly be interesting to see if Team India can achieve a similar feat under Rohit Sharma.
The Indian team had previously played a pink-ball Test in Adelaide in 2020.
The Adelaide Test match will be played with a pink ball. Earlier, the Indian team had played a pink-ball Test against Australia, in which the Indian team had to suffer a crushing defeat. This game is also only played in Adelaide. Then you will remember that India’s entire first innings score was limited to 36 runs. India tried to make a comeback, but even then, it had to face a crushing defeat by 8 wickets. After this, a pink ball match will be played between India and Australia. Although India has played a number of pink-ball Tests at home and also won, Australia is yet to conquer the fortress.
Australia have won 11 of the 12 pink-ball Tests on their own soil.
Australia has played 12 pink-ball Tests on its soil so far. Among them, the team won 11 games and lost one game. The match takes place at the Gabba’s historic ground in December 2024, almost a year ago. The West Indies then won. In that match, West Indies fast bowler Sharma Joseph put in a stunning performance. The West Indies created a sensation by winning the match by a slim margin of 8 runs. After that, the pink ball Test was again held in Adelaide. Cricket fans across the world are waiting.
The competition will be held under WTC
This Test match between India and Australia is also important as the Australian team has already lost the first match and will be desperate to take revenge. Australia’s performance in Adelaide was much better and they will try to keep it up. This game is of great significance to the Indian team, because the Indian team must maintain the first position in the World Test Championship standings to have a chance to advance to the finals. Even a single loss can spoil India’s game. So India needs to be particularly careful.
