India and Australia have met in the only day and night event of the four-game series in Adelaide. Virat Kohli’s team began hitting before winning the toss in the match.
Australian captain Tim Payne also wanted to hit before winning the toss. “I wanted to hit first,” he said after the pitch. The wicket is pretty good. But that’s okay, I’m happy I can go bowling first. ‘
Kohli decided to hit after getting a good look at the wicket. The Indian captain said: ‘Looking at the wickets, it looks like they’re good enough to hit. It is very important to hit and run first on foreign soil. Great practice. The team also played some practice games. I hope it is a great match.
No one debuted for the Indian team in this match. However, Cameron Green, the all-rounder of rhythm bowling, made his debut for the Australian team. The all-rounder is the 459th cricketer to play test cricket in Australia.
