Match Summary of the 1st T20I:
The visitors have made a mockery of this huge score. It was an exceptional chase from Australia who go 1-0 up in the three-match series. This is Australia’s second-highest successful chase in T20Is.
Here is Vtrakit’s predicted playing XI for the IND v AUS Second T20I.

The match/toss is delayed because of a wet outfield!
My Playing 11
Rohit already faces pressure of captaincy and its reflecting in his activities in the ground. Whatever he should learn to express it in the dressing room and not in ground as it may affect team spirit.
The umpires aren’t happy with the ground conditions. The next inspection is at 8pm.
I would keep Harshal Patel out at any cost. He was a fluke thanks to IPL and the conditions they’ve played. He’ll never be a player who can play at the Australian conditions. He should be kept out and Shami should be included in the main WC squad.
Toss is delayed further, next inspection scheduled for 8:45 PM
Cut-off time is 9.46 pm IST for a 5 over game.
The two umpires are in the middle to have another inspection!
And we have an eight-overs-a-side match here at Nagpur . The toss will take place at 9.15pm . The first ball will be bowled at 9.30pm . A bowler can bowl a maximum of two overs. The powerplay will also be of two overs.
Nitin Menon: “There has been lot of improvement. Although the conditions are not perfect, they are safe to play.”
8 over game. This is going to be chaotic.
