India vs Australia 1st Test Day 2 Predictions
1- R Ashwin to score a half-century
Ashwin was sent as the night watchman for India on the 1st day. However, everyone knows that Ashwin is more than capable of scoring big runs in Test cricket. We predict that Ashwin is going to score more than 50 runs on the second day of the 1st Test between India and Australia.
2- Rohit Sharma to miss out on the century
Rohit Sharma looked great touch today, but he was a little fidgety at the end of the day. He is expected to get out in the first session of the second day. Sharma will most likely score around 70-80 runs for India.
3- Virat Kohli to score a hundred
The former Indian captain Virat Kohli is going through a lean patch in Test cricket. However, Australia is his favourite opponent, and he is most likely to return to form with an emphatic century on day 2 of the 1st Test between India and Australia.
