Adelaide test will resume today, with Australia having the strong upper hand. Marnus Labuschagne and Nathan McSweeney have added 62 runs so far for the second wicket. This is surprising because Marnus has been out of form for so long, and Nathan is playing just his second test match. If Marnus can get a hundred tomorrow, then it would be great. For India, Jasprit Bumrah was exceptional once again. But then he got hardly any support from the other bowlers. I really don't know why the selectors are persisting with Mohammed Siraj.
India had a small total. Even then I thought the match would be competitive. In the first match we saw India in the first innings, India could only score 150 runs. Even then, India took a lead of 46 runs. And in the second innings, India batted well and gave a target of 500+.
In the first innings of the second match, we also saw India's weak batting. India scored only 180 runs. However, the Australian batsmen are batting very responsibly. Australia scored 86 runs for the loss of 1 wicket. If Australia wants to win the match, they need to take a lead of at least 100+ runs. Otherwise, maybe India will give a big target.
Australia are trailing by 94 runs but comparing India's first match with Australia, it is not possible to accurately predict which team will win. Seeing how India won the match incredibly despite the batting disaster in the first Test match, it seems that India will come back in the second innings in this match as well. However, in this match, Australia's batting style seems to be taking a big run lead. And if Australia can give a big run lead then Australia will definitely have more chances to win.

Australia will not allow a repeat of the same incident as in the first match. If Australia had batted a little better in the first innings of the first match, then India would not have had a chance to dominate the match. Australia fell behind in the first innings itself.

As usual, we saw India's weak batting in the first innings of the second match. However, the Australian batsmen batted very carefully. However, it is not possible to say whether Australia will be able to start the next day well. If Australia does not lose any wickets in the first 10 overs tomorrow, then I would say that Australia will score at least 300 runs in the first innings.
