Play resumes in second ODI between India and Australia

INDORE, India, Sept 24, 2023 (BSS/AFP) - Play resumed Sunday in the second

one-day international between India and Australia in Indore after a short
rain interruption.

India, put in to bat, were 79-1 off 9.5 overs when a steady drizzle stopped
play.

Shreyas Iyer was batting on 34 with Shubman Gill on 32 after Ruturaj
Gaikwad's dismissal for eight in the fourth over.

India, the number one ranked ODI team, lead the three-match series 1-0,
having won the previous game in Mohali by five wickets.

The series is serving as a tune-up before India hosts the showpiece ODI World
Cup tournament next month.

The third and final game will be played in Rajkot on Wednesday.

India earlier made one change to the side that played at Mohali, bringing in
fast bowler Prasidh Krishna in place of Jasprit Bumrah.

Bumrah has gone to visit his family after being given a short break by team
management.

Australia left out Pat Cummins, Mitchell Marsh and Marcus Stoinis.

Josh Hazlewood and Alex Carey were brought in, while an international debut
was handed to left-arm fast bowler Spencer Johnson.
