The second India vs Australia ODI of the three-match series will be played this Sunday (19 March) at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam.
The hosts India are leading this series by 1-0 after winning the opening game of this series by five wickets (with 61 balls remaining) at Mumbai by successfully chasing the 189-run target. It was a tight low-scoring game, where KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja safely guided the home team to victory.
While the visitors Australia can’t afford another defeat in this ODI series, India are just one win away from securing this home ODI series.
