India captain Suryakumar Yadav opted for a humorous reaction as he lost yet another toss against Australia in the second T20I at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday. When Australian skipper Mitchell Marsh called correctly and opted to bowl first, Suryakumar reacted with a light-hearted gesture towards his teammates, indicating that perhaps the team needed to do ‘an Aarti’ (a traditional prayer ritual), to change their luck with the toss.

Once the match got underway, India’s struggles with the bat continued. Josh Hazlewood’s fiery opening spell put the visitors on the back foot. The Indian top order collapsed inside the powerplay, reduced to 32/4.

Only Abhishek Sharma offered meaningful resistance, playing a counter-attacking innings of 68 off 37 balls. He found support from Harshit Rana, who contributed 35 from 33 deliveries as the pair made a 56-run stand to take India to 125 all out in 18.4 overs. Hazlewood and Nathan Ellis shared the spoils for Australia, exploiting the movement and bounce on offer. Wickets fell regularly as India failed to recover from the early blows despite Abhishek’s valiant effort.
