Speaking at the toss, Rohit stated that the Adelaide Oval pitch looked good for batting.
Here's what he said, "We are going to bat first. Looks a good pitch, looks a bit dry at the moment, enough grass covering as well. There will be something in it for everyone."
Furthermore, Rohit added that he is 'raring to go' after having missed out on the 1st Test in Perth.
"I have been here for two weeks now. Ready to go now. The mood is good, pretty vibrant. What the boys did in Perth was superb. It's a long series, we'll try and do most things right. The fast bowlers are happy (with the break). We want to carry from where we left. We have made 3 changes. I am back, Gill is back. Ashwin is back. I am batting in the middle order.
Cummins speaking at the toss said, "It's always good to have a fresh start. Pink ball can be a little bit different. It's been a really good preparation. It's pretty muggy today. Just one change. Josh Hazlewood misses out, Scott Boland comes in."
India are 1-0 up in the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series after winning the first Test in Perth by 294 runs.huuugebet
