India didn't have a great start to the four-match Border-Gavaskar series as they lost the first Test at the Adelaide Oval, pretty comprehensively by the hosts. India were bowled out for a paltry 36 and Australia romped to victory, chasing 90 runs in just 21 overs. Now, without Virat Kohli and Mohammed Shami, India will come to the Boxing Day Test at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground low on confidence. However, the visitors have no choice but to come back hard with a positive mindset. India have made four changes to their line-up with Shubman Gill and Mohammed Siraj being handed out their debuts and Ravindra Jadeja coming back into the line-up after recovering from concussion and hamstring strain. Rishabh Pant too was named in the XI, replacing Wriddhiman Saha. Australia, however, looks to play the same XI, with opening batsman David Warner still nursing his groin injury.
Here is the the LIVE SCORECARD of the match between India and Australia from the MCG.
