As the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 approaches, India is faced with a significant batting order dilemma. With the return of skipper Rohit Sharma from paternity leave and Shubman Gill recovering from a thumb injury, the team is set to make key changes to their lineup. KL Rahul, who performed well in the first Test, is open to adjusting his position in the batting order, but the exact changes remain undisclosed until the team's official announcement[1].

The upcoming Test at Adelaide Oval, starting on December 6, will be a day-night match, presenting a new challenge for both teams. India's confidence is high following their 295-run victory in the first Test at Perth, but they acknowledge the different conditions and the pink ball's impact. Rahul emphasized the importance of winning each session rather than focusing on the entire game[1].

Meanwhile, Australian spinner Nathan Lyon is looking forward to the Adelaide Test, where he has a stellar record. Lyon is the leading Test wicket-taker at Adelaide Oval with 63 scalps and believes the pitch will offer the bounce and spin that he finds beneficial. His experience and past performances make him a crucial player for Australia, especially in the later stages of the match when the pitch tends to become more spin-friendly[3].
