Scores, results, news updates and how to watch second ODI in Adelaide

Hello and welcome to our coverage of the second ODI between Australia and India at a sold-out Adelaide Oval.

The opening game on Sunday in Perth was a damp affair, with Australia winning easily after Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Starc made quick work of the touring team’s top order.

With Pat Cummins still yet to start bowling after his back injury, all eyes will be on Hazlewood and Starc as the two clear leaders of the attack in this series and the Ashes beyond.

Another player with an intriguing story today is Matt Renshaw, who was favoured this week by several sound judges as the best option to open the batting opposite Usman Khawaja against England. He will be in the middle order at Adelaide Oval, and has come along way in mentality since he debuted in Tests aged 20.

“A lot of the time you try and force a few things, you see someone else gets runs, and you go: ‘I need to score runs because then I’m going to be picked for Australia, then I’m going to become a good person’,” he said.

“That whole mentality when you’re young is that’s how you view yourself as a person.

“Whereas now I go home and I’ve got to change nappies, I’ve got to put kids to bed, I’ve got to try and calm screaming babies down.

“When you’re young, you go home, you have got nothing to do, so you’re just sitting on your phone scrolling.

“I hide. I don’t have the Cricket Australia app, I don’t try and look at any news, I hide all the cricket stuff on my Instagram so I don’t see it.”
