<h2><strong>Rohit can play in the middle order</strong></h2>

<p>Yashasvi Jaiswal will open, but KL Rahul increased the difficulties of the team management by batting brilliantly in the first Test against the new ball. After his innings, the chances of captain Rohit playing in the middle order have increased. In the practice match against PM-11, Rohit also came in the middle order, while Rahul opened. A day earlier, Rahul said that he can bat at any position.</p>

<p>There are high chances of Rahul opening with Yashasvi. Rohit can come at number-5. Virat Kohli will be at number-4 and Rishabh Pant at number-6. All-rounder Nitish Reddy can now come at number-7. He came at number-8 in the first Test.</p>

<h2><strong>IND vs AUS 2nd Test Pitch Report:</strong></h2>

<ol>
	<li><strong>Initial Surface</strong>:

	<ul style="list-style-type:circle">
		<li>The pitch will have about <strong>6mm of grass</strong> on the opening day, providing assistance to seam bowlers early on.</li>
		<li>The pink ball moves more under bright sunlight, making it challenging for batters in the first session.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
	<li><strong>Even Contest</strong>:
	<ul style="list-style-type:circle">
		<li>The pitch is expected to offer a balanced contest between batters and bowlers initially but will <strong>wear out as the game progresses</strong>.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
	<li><strong>Post-Sunset Challenge</strong>:
	<ul style="list-style-type:circle">
		<li>The period after sunset is the most difficult for batters due to changing light and visibility, giving an edge to bowlers, especially seamers.</li>
		<li>This twilight phase often sees exaggerated swing and seam movement.</li>
	</ul>
	</li>
</ol>

<h2><strong>IND vs AUS 2nd Test Weather Report:</strong></h2>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Day 1</strong>: Thunderstorms might affect play.</li>
	<li><strong>Subsequent Days</strong>: The weather is expected to improve over the weekend, making batting conditions more favorable.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Strategy:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>Winning the toss and opting to <strong>bat first</strong> is considered advantageous to gain an early lead before the pitch deteriorates.</li>
</ul>

<h2><strong>Only one spinner will get a chance</strong></h2>

<p>India&#39;s only spinner in Perth was Washington Sundar, although he could not get much chance to bat. Ravichandran Ashwin&#39;s record in Adelaide is excellent, he has taken 16 wickets in 3 Tests here. Which includes 3 or more wickets in an innings 4 times. On the last tour, he sent Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne to the pavilion. He was also seen bowling for a long time during net practice.</p>

<p>If the team management looks at the past record, Ashwin is sure to play. He also bats. Apart from Ashwin, Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja are the options. Whichever player gets the chance, he will bat at number-8.</p>

<h2><strong>Battle for third pacer between Harshit-Aakash</strong></h2>

<p>Harshit Rana, who bowled Travis Head in the first Test, impressed in the practice match. Therefore, his chances of playing have increased. Akash Deep also bowled brilliantly in the net practice, the question is who will be the third pacer among the two players. Vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj will be the first 2 pacers.</p>

<h3><strong>Australia forced to make one change</strong></h3>

<p>While Team India is going to make 2 to 3 changes, the Kangaroo team will make only one change even after losing the first Test. That too under compulsion. Josh Hazlewood, who conceded runs at an economy rate of less than 2 in the first Test, has been injured. In such a situation, Scott Boland will get a chance in his place. Apart from this, there will be no other change in the playing-11.</p>

<p>Indian team head coach Gautam Gambhir has returned to Australia. He will join the team on Tuesday. On November 26, Gautam had gone to India to attend a family function. Gautam was not a part of the team in the two-day pink ball practice match held in Canberra. India won this match by 6 wickets. The second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will be played in Adelaide from December 6.</p>

<p>In Gambhir&#39;s absence, the Indian team trained under the supervision of other coaching staff. Assistant coach Abhishek Nair, Ryan Ten Doeschate, bowling coach Morne Morkel trained the team. Rohit joined the team on November 24. He was on paternity leave. Rohit&#39;s wife Ritika has given birth to a son.</p>

<h2><strong>Rohit Sharma can play in the middle order</strong></h2>

<p>Choosing the playing-11 for the second match will be the biggest headache for Gambhir. Captain Rohit Sharma has returned to the team. At the same time, Shubman Gill scored a brilliant half-century in the practice match. The team can include these two players in the playing-11 in place of Devdutt Padikkal and Dhruv Jurel. But the question arises that what will be the opening combination of the team.</p>

<p>Jaiswal and KL Rahul had a double century partnership in the second innings of the Perth Test. At the same time, Rahul came out to open with Jaiswal in the Pink Ball Test as well. In this match, Rohit Sharma batted in the middle order. In such a situation, in the Adelaide Test, Gill can bat at number three with the opening pair of Jaiswal-Rahul and Rohit can bat in the middle order after Virat.</p>

<h2><strong>Defeated PM-11 by 6 wickets</strong></h2>

<p>In the absence of Gambhir, India defeated Australia PM-11 by 6 wickets in the two-day tour game. However, this two-day pink ball match could not start due to rain on the first day. After which on December 1, both the teams played a match of 46-46 overs.</p>

<p>Batting first in this match, Prime Minister XI had set a target of 241 runs for India, which the team achieved by losing 4 wickets in 42.5 overs. Shubman Gill, who was returning from a thumb injury for India, scored the highest 50 runs. While Harshit Rana took 4 wickets.</p>

<h2><a href="https://grand11.in/cricket-breaking-news/india-beat-australia-by-295-runs/1654"><strong>India won the first Test</strong></a></h2>

Urvil Patel is the fastest Indian to score a century in T20

<p>The IPL mega auction took place on 24 and 25 November in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. 7 teams bought 22 to 25 players, while Bengaluru, Kolkata and Hyderabad teams could buy only 20-21 players. PBKS, DC and RCB teams, who came with the biggest purse, looked almost perfect.</p>

<p>Delhi bought big players at a low price, while KKR could not buy any captain. The finishing of Mumbai, Rajasthan and Hyderabad is coming out weak. At the same time, the top-4 of Lucknow and Kolkata looked weak. Due to the impact player rule in IPL, 12 players play in the match, so this time fewer all-rounders were bought.</p>

<h2><strong>1. Chennai Super Kings: Spin department strong, Dhoni&#39;s fellow finisher not bought</strong></h2>

<p>Strength: Strengthened the core by buying old players like Conway, Rachin, Ashwin, Karan. Noor, Jadeja and Ashwin are making the spin department very strong. Bought 9 all-rounders, out of which 5 will also be part of the playing-12. The team&#39;s backup is also strong.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness</strong>: 42-year-old Dhoni is the only finisher. Karan, Jadeja and Ashwin are weak as finishers. There are no proper players to support Pathirana in the pace bowling department as well. Invested more money on young pacers, which could prove to be risky.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Rituraj Gaikwad (captain), Devon Conway, Rahul Tripathi, Deepak Hooda, Shivam Dubey, Sam Karan, MS Dhoni (wicketkeeper), Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Khalil Ahmed, Noor Ahmed, Mathish Pathirana.</p>

<h2><strong>2. Mumbai Indians: Strong batting and bowling, lack of finisher</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> The team&#39;s top order batting is strong due to the presence of Indian international players. Bumrah, Boult and Chahar are strengthening the pace bowling. Santner and Ghazanfar fit in the spin department.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> There is no finisher in the team to support Hardik. Young Robin Minj will come at number-7, if he flops then the team&#39;s finishing will become very weak. There is no backup Indian wicketkeeper either.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Rohit Sharma, Will Jacks, Tilak Verma, Suryakumar Yadav, Naman Dheer, Hardik Pandya (captain), Robin Minj (wicketkeeper), Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Allah Ghazanfar, Trent Boult, Jaspreet Bumrah.</p>

<h2><strong>3. Kolkata Knight Riders: Captain not bought, finishing very strong</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Top class finishers are present from number-4 to 7. If Narine opens then there is also an option to increase bowling. Chakraborty, Harshit, Nortya and Vaibhav are also making the bowling strong.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Captain not bought; previous captain Shreyas was bought by Punjab. A lot of money was spent on Venkatesh, but it is difficult to fit him in the playing-11. His presence is weakening the top order of the team.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12: </strong>Quinton de Kock (WK), Sunil Narine, Venkatesh Iyer, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Harshit Rana, Enrique Nortya, Varun Chakraborty, Vaibhav Arora, Mayank Markande.</p>

<h2><strong>4. Sunrisers Hyderabad: Strong batting-bowling, finishing a bit weak</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Top-5 batsmen are very explosive, last season, with their help, the best score of IPL was made. Bowling has also been strengthened by buying Harshal and Shami.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Finishing options are weak after Klaasen. There are players like Manohar and Mendis, but they are not able to increase the strength of the team.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Nitish Reddy, Heinrich Klaasen (wicketkeeper), Kamindu Mendis, Abhinav Manohar, Pat Cummins (captain), Harshal Patel, Rahul Chahar, Mohammed Shami, Jaydev Unadkat.</p>

<h2><strong>5. Royal Challengers Bangalore: Did not buy big names, made a balanced team; captain not decided</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Did not bid on big names like Maxwell, Pant, Rahul, Shreyas. Bought T-20 specialists like Salt, Livingstone, Jitesh, Krunal. Bhuvneshwar, Dayal and Rasikh are strengthening the bowling.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Suyash Sharma can be risky as a wrist spinner. After releasing Du Plessis, did not buy the captain either. The spin department is a bit weak.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Phil Salt, Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Krunal Pandya, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Tim David, Swapnil Singh/Suyash Sharma, Rasikh Salam, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal.</p>

<h2><strong>6. Delhi Capitals: Strong batting and bowling; finishing depends on Indians</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength</strong>: Delhi made the smartest purchase in the auction. The team bought players like Rahul, Starc, Natarajan, Ashutosh at low prices. Both batting and bowling departments are strong.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Ashutosh and Akshar will be responsible for finishing. No foreigner was bought at this position, if the Indian player flops then the team may face problems here.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Jack Fraser-Magark, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Sameer Rizvi/Abhishek Porel, Harry Brook, Tristan Stubbs, Ashutosh Sharma, Akshar Patel, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, Thangarasu Natarajan, Mohit Sharma, Mukesh Kumar.</p>

<h2><strong>7. Punjab Kings: Bought the most expensive players, but made the team strong</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Bought a stable captain in the form of Shreyas. Made the finishing very strong with Wadhera, Maxwell, Stoinis. Arshdeep, Chahal and Jansen are also strengthening the bowling.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Maxwell has been a flop in IPL for the last few years, Ferguson also proves to be expensive at times. Bought 3 such players from Australia, who have not been able to prove themselves in India.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Prabhsimran Singh (wicketkeeper), Priyansh Arya, Shreyas Iyer (captain), Shashank Singh, Glenn Maxwell, Nehal Wadhera, Marcus Stoinis, Marco Jansen, Harpreet Brar, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal, Lockie Ferguson.</p>

<h2><strong>8. Lucknow Supergiants: Top order weak, finisher strong</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Pooran, Miller, Shahbaz and Samad are strengthening the finishing. Pant plays fast in IPL, which is also strengthening the middle order.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Marsh and Markram are out of form in T20, if both of them do not perform then Lucknow will be under pressure from the powerplay itself. The fitness of Mohsin and Mayank will also be a concern for the team.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Mitchell Marsh, Aiden Markram, Ayush Badoni, Rishabh Pant (wicketkeeper), Nicholas Pooran, David Miller, Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Ravi Bishnoi, Mohsin Khan, Mayank Yadav, Avesh Khan/Akash Deep.</p>

<h2><strong>9. Gujarat Titans: Middle order weak, bowling-finishing strong</strong></h2>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Butler&#39;s arrival strengthened the opening, also provided a strong wicketkeeping option. Finishing and bowling have been further strengthened.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> Sudarshan and Lomror are risky options in the middle order. Siraj, Rabada and Sundar prove to be expensive at times.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Jos Buttler (wicketkeeper), Shubman Gill (captain), Sai Sudarshan, Mahipal Lomror, Glenn Phillips, Shahrukh Khan, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Washington Sundar, Kagiso Rabada, Mohammad Siraj, Prasidh Krishna.</p>

<h3><strong>10. Rajasthan Royals: Weak finishing, no backup players either; strong batting-bowling</strong></h3>

<p><strong>Strength:</strong> Retained the batsmen, strengthened the batting further by buying Nitish Rana and Shubham Dubey. Hasranga, Archer, Farooqui and Sandeep Sharma are strengthening the bowling department.</p>

<p><strong>Weakness:</strong> There are no good finishers to support Hetmyer. There is no strong backup for injured and out of form players.</p>

<p><strong>Possible-12:</strong> Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (captain and wicketkeeper), Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel, Shubham Dubey, Shimron Hetmyer, Wanindu Hasaranga, Jofra Archer, Fazalhaq Farooqui, Tushar Deshpande, Sandeep Sharma.</p>
