India vs Australia Team Preview
India
In the first ODI, India did not perform at their best, notably in the early stages of their innings with the bat. They did, however, find a way to win, and we expect them to be too powerful again in this match.
India captain Rohit Sharma is expected to rejoin the squad at the top of the order in Visakhapatnam after missing the first ODI to attend his brother-in-law’s wedding. He is expected to come in as a direct replacement for Ishan Kishan.
Australia
Australia will be very sad that they lost the match on Friday after being in solid positions in both innings. We anticipate them to be competitive once more in this encounter.
Despite the incredibly humid circumstances on Friday, Australia only batted for 39.5 overs, with Mitchell Starc bowling the most balls in his 9.5-over period. There were no injuries reported, and we do not anticipate any changes in this match.

India vs Australia outfield report
Batting second has won more ODIs at this venue than batting first, and we anticipate that both teams will choose to field first in Sunday’s ODI.
Throughout the game, it will be extremely muggy, with plenty of cloud cover. Rain is very likely to halt the game at some point.
The pitch at Visakhapatnam may provide a bit more for spinners than the one at Wankhede Stadium. Even so, top pace bowlers should still be dangerous on this surface.
