Australian skipper Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to bowl against India in the 2nd match. Shubman Gill and Ruturaj Gaikwad opened the innings for India. With the early wicket of Gaikwad, Shreyas Iyer came to bat at no.3

Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer, both carved their partnership of 200 runs by smashing 104 runs and 105 runs respectively. Shreyas Iyer's ton was a comeback after undergoing continuous injuries. He smashed 105 runs in just 90 balls including 11 fours and 3 sixes

After the dismissal of Gill and Iyer, other Indian batters didn't stop. Captain KL Rahul attained a quick 52 runs in just 38 balls and Surya Kumar Yadav smashed a solid unbeaten 72 runs in just 37 balls. Even Ishan Kishan scored 31 runs in 18 deliveries to help India put up a total of 399 runs

After the blistering first innings of India, Australia needed to chase down a score of 400 runs against India for a win. David Warner smashed 53 runs off 39 balls and was about to pull the game towards Australia. But Ravichandran Ashwin striked at the right time and ended Warner's innings 

With Sean Abbott smashing 54 runs, Ravindra Jadeja took his wicket at the right time to stop the Aussies from chasing the target. Both Indian spinners Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin picked 3 wickets each. Even pacers Mohammed Shami and Prasidh Krishna picked 1 wicket and 2 wickets respectively

Team India was successful in sealing the win even in the second match against Australia under KL Rahul's captaincy. So far, all Indian team players look in fine touch ahead of ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023 preparations
