After a dull draw in the first unofficial Test on a flat Lucknow wicket, India A and Australia A will hope for a livelier wicket and hopefully a result in the second and final red-ball game. KL Rahul and Mohammed Siraj will be the big names from the Indian Test team available for the second match.
The first India A vs Australia A turned out to be a dull and drab draw in Lucknow and even though the likes of Sam Konstas, Campbell Kellaway and Josh Philippe from Australia and Devdutt Padikkal and Dhruv Jurel from the Indian camp scored the big runs, it was such a flat wicket that four days could witness just a little over two innings, which were also declared. Both teams will hope for a bit more sporting wicket and an equal contest between the bat and the ballย
