IND vs AUS, 2nd ODI: Humiliating defeat for India

Australia handed India a crushing 84-run defeat to earn a 1-0 lead in the five-match one-day series. Australia made a mighty 306-5 in the second one-day international against India, with major contributions from Andrew Symonds and Brad Haddin. Symonds hit two sixes and nine fours in making 87 off 83 balls, and put on 108 with Brad Haddin (87 not out off 69). In reply, India lost wickets at regular intervals and was bowled out in 47.3 overs. Robin Uthappa made 41 off 30 balls, while Gambhir fell cheaply, and Sachin Tendulkar and Yuvraj Singh played lazy shots to throw away their wickets. Dhoni made an 88-ball 58, the only half century among Indians. Earlier, Indian captain Mahendra Dhoni won the toss and asked Australia to bat first in the second one-day international on Tuesday. Start of play was delayed by 30 minutes to 0415 GMT because of dew on the pitch, but there was no reduction of overs. India made two changes from the rain-abandoned opening match, including fit-again Harbhajan Singh as a second spinner alongside fellow off spinner Ramesh Powar. Left-arm paceman Rudra Pratap Singh was left out. Australia: Adam Gilchrist (Captain), Matthew Hayden, Brad Hodge, Michael Clarke, Andrew Symonds, Brad Haddin, James Hopes, Brett Lee, Brad Hogg, Stuart Clark, Mitchell Johnson.
India: Mahendra Dhoni (Captain), Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Robin Uthappa, Yuvraj Singh, Irfan Pathan, Ramesh Powar, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Shanthakumaran Sreesanth Reported Earlier: Rain threatened a washout of the second one-day international Tuesday between India and Australia after the opening game met a similar fate last week. A heavy shower Monday morning ruined the training plans of the teams at the Kerala Cricket Association ground, which is soggy after days of monsoon rains.
With the weathermen forecasting rain on Tuesday as well, chances of any play look bleak. Meanwhile, Robin Uthappa is recovering from a hamstring problem, while off-spinner Harbhajan Singh is expected to be available for the match after missing the first game with a neck sprain.

Sourav Ganguly to miss second ODI

Former India captain and opening batsman Sourav Ganguly will miss Tuesday's One-Day International against Australia in Kochi due to a hamstring strain, the cricket board said Sunday.
Ganguly, 34, suffered the strain while fielding in the rain-abandoned first ODI at Bangalore Saturday. A scan Sunday morning revealed that there was no serious injury, the board said in a statement. The left-handed batsman would undergo vigorous rehabilitation to enable him get fit for the third match in Hyderabad on Friday.
