In Short

  • Indian team arrives in Canberra for 2nd Test
  • India have taken 1-0 lead in 5 match Test series
  • Australia lost the 1st Test by 295 runs

The official social media handle of the BCCI shared a special video of Team India's travel day out. The Indian team, led by captain Rohit Sharma landed in Canberra from Perth. The players looked in a very relaxed and chilled out mood as they arrived for the 2nd Test in Australia's capital. The Indian team were donning their travelling kit and looked stylish yet comfortable in their airport look. India will face Australia in the 2nd Test match at the Adelaide Oval. The much-anticipated Test match will start on December 6 and will be played with Pink ball.

India boast of a decent record in the Pink ball Test, although they have not played a lot of it. India has played four matches and won three of those. However, India's only loss in pink ball Test came against Australia in 2020. India infamously bundled out to their lowest total in Test cricket for just 36 runs as Australia won the 1st Test by 8 wickets. Meanwhile, India hosted three Pink ball Tests at home and won all of them against Bangladesh, England and Sri Lanka.
