Captain Virat Kohli is showing signs of loss of form. He has been dismissed in first innings of second test match against Australia after scoring just 12 runs. Virat puts big burden on the middle and low order batsmen. If India will not put a big score on the board in the innings, it will have great impact on the match as well as the tournament. India has already loss three big wickets in the form of Mukund, Chateswar Pujara and Virat Kohli. Opener Lokesh Rahul is trying to build good partnership with Ajinkya Rahane. While KL Rahul is playing at 61, Rahane is taking time to score runs is at the crease with 9 runs.

India opted to couple of changes in second test. Mukund and KK Nair come in place of Murali Vijay and Jayant Yadav. India’s coach Anil Kumble already told media that, Rahane is a good player and he will not be removed from second test. So, Rahane has big responsibility on his shoulders.
