According to the Australian weather bureau, Melbourne will have a day full of showers and even thunderstorms, so that is why the question of playing the game or just how many overs it could be played, is hanging in the air. MCG pitch is usually very good for fast bowlers, since they can get the most out of the bounce and pace during the early hours of the match. But if the overcast conditions are there then swing will be a factor. It’s possible that the batters won’t be able to show their full potential until the wicket settles down. For India, the captain Suryakumar Yadav, who will rely on his good luck through, is supported by Shubman Gill and Rinku Singh who are key to providing strength to the middle order. At the same time, Marsh’s team, Australia, aiming to comeback with a better bowling performance, is still trying to figure out how to handle the flighty start they’ve had.
