Cricket Match Predictions

Match Prediction for the second Test match between Australia and India

India was absolutely obliterated in the second innings of the first Test match at Adelaide as they were dismissed for a paltry 36.

It is now going to be a herculean task for the visitors to make a comeback into the four-match series without the services of Virat Kohli and Mohammed Shami.

We have got Match Prediction for you which can help you in placing the right bets. We will discuss current form, head to head, stats and players to watch out for in the upcoming match.

Current form:

India had a horrible day at work on the third day’s play and the visitors will look to turn the tables. The tourists will need to come up with a better batting performance at the MCG to dominate the hosts. However, the Indian team had delivered the goods with the ball in the first innings at Adelaide and they would look to replicate the same.

Australia would have gained a lot of confidence after their brilliant bowling performance. Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood were absolutely right on the money and they breathed down the neck of the Indian batsmen. However, the hosts will look to pull up their socks in the batting department.

Head to Head stats: Total Number of Matches: 99, Won by India: 28, Won by Australia: 43, Drawn: 27, Tied: 1.

Players to watch out for: Ajinkya Rahane will need to lead from the front and he should also bat at number four. Cheteshwar Pujara will need to bring his best to the table. Players like KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal will also need to bat at the top of their game whereas Bumrah and Ashwin will be the crucial bowlers for the team.

Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschange will hold the key for Australia as David Warner has been ruled out of the second Test. Cummins and Hazlewood will be main bowlers for Australia.

Rankings: Australia is placed at the first position whereas India is at the third place.

Match Prediction: There is no doubt that Australia will be favourites in the second Test match as they have the momentum on their side.
