India will look to come out all guns blazing at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot when they take on Australia in the second ODI of the three-match series.

The Men in Blue will step into the game 0-1 down after Australia registered a 10-wicket win in the lung-opener at Mumbai, courtesy David Warner and Aaron Finch, who hit unbeaten hundreds. This also means that the Rajkot ODI is a must-win contest for India if they want to stay alive in the series.

In a bid to field all three in-form players — Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan and KL Rahul — Virat Kohli dropped himself down the order but the plan backfired as he was unable to convert his start. The skipper’s move to give up his No 3 position also drew flak from former cricketers.
