Australia prepares for the second Test at Adelaide Oval, while India rests before starting pre-game routines.
Australia got down to do the hard yards at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on Monday (December 2, 2024). With the second Test scheduled to commence on Friday (December 6, 2024), the host had a long training session. Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne, both searching for runs, batted in the nets.
Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma’s men flew in from Canberra and opted to rest. The Indians will commence their pre-game routines from Tuesday with a stint under lights at night. Having got a feel of the pink ball during the warm-up fixture against the Prime Minister’s XI at Canberra on Sunday, the visitors are keen to get more of the same in the coming days.
