India is set to face Australia in the second Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Adelaide Oval, beginning on Friday, December 6. The touring side holds a 1-0 lead in the series following a commanding victory in the opening match in Perth.
This day/night encounter is expected to be a significant challenge for India, as Australia boasts an unbeaten record with the pink ball at this venue. Adding to the pressure, India will be looking to overcome haunting memories from 2020, when they were bowled out for just 36 in their second innings, marking their lowest total in Test cricket.
