Australia was not in form
Rickey Ponting really regret that why did he take the decision of fielding first. The beginning was not good for Aussies as the opener batsman Tim Paine was sedated by the Indian bowler Praveen Kumar. Ishant was in hiss form and caught Shane Watson with its extra bounce. On the score of 41, the two batsmen of the Australian team were getting back in pavilion. Ricky Ponting tried to control the situation and hit two fours in his 16 balls stay, but at last he got back to dressing room. With his gone, the hope of the Australia team shattered down as the total score at that time was 45 for 3. After his wicket, Cameron White and Michael Hussey stay on the ground for some time and scored 48 runs in partnership. But after that Harbhajan Singh got his wicket. After the fall of fourth wicket, Australian team just fell down, but the players did not give up and tried to give their best for the sake of the team. Adam Voges and Michael Hussey were on crease and they were trying to take singles on the pitch.

Ravindra Jadeja was rocking
The strong partnership of Hussey and Voger were broken by Jadega by using his spin balls. First he took the wicket of Hussey and after that Shaun Marsh and Adam Voges made his day by being his second and third wickets respectively. After that one by one each player went back to pavilion. Like batsmen, bowlers of the Indian team did not give them chance to stay on the pitch for the long time. The bowlers like Harbhajan Singh, Ishant Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja did a splendid job and the combine efforts of all the players of the team make it possible and India won the second match of the series. Now the competition is neck to neck. The match was as usual very exciting and the people enjoyed this match very much. Over all it was a good and fabulous match.
