India are in a must-win situation in the ongoing three-match ODI series against Australia. The visitors couldn’t have hoped to play at a better venue than Adelaide Oval in the second game, as they have not lost there since 2008. The men in blue have won four matches, while one of their games, against Sri Lanka, ended in a tie back in 2012.
India’s wins at the venue have come against Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Australia (twice) at the Adelaide Oval and their proud 17-year unbeaten record is at stake in the second ODI. They must win the match on Thursday to stay alive in the series after going down in Perth, where rain played a massive role, coupled with some poor batting from India.
The visitors last lost an ODI at the Adelaide Oval back in February 2008 against Australia by 50 runs and overall, India also boast of a brilliant record at the venue in the 50-over format. They have played 15 matches since 1980 and have won nine of them while losing five. India are also coming back to Adelaide to play a 50-over encounter for the first time since 2019.
