BGT AUS vs IND Dream11 Prediction: The BGT 2024-25 started on a surprising note as India breached another of Australia’s fortresses, the Optus Stadium in Perth, where the hosts had won four out of four matches.
But the Indian cricket team, despite missing Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, thumped Australia by 295 runs courtesy of superlative efforts from Jasprit Bumrah, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Virat Kohli, while KL Rahul, Siraj, and Harshit Rana played supporting acts very well.
The teams will now head to Adelaide for the second Test of the series. This will be a day-night contest to be played with a pink ball. India’s memories of their last day-night match in Adelaide are horrific, as they were bowled out for 36 runs.
Heading into the second Test, India will be boosted by the return of Rohit and Gill, while Australia will be missing Josh Hazlewood due to a side strain, and Mitchell Marsh is unlikely to bowl, thus adding more workload to the four premier bowlers.
Australia vs India head-to-head:
Australia have an upper hand over India in Test cricket. Out of the 107 Tests played between the two nations, Australia won 45, India won 33, 29 matches were drawn, and one Test match was tied.

Australia vs India pitch report:
The day-night Test matches in Adelaide pose challenges to batsmen. Batting in the first and third sessions of the day is tough. The pink ball moves much more and for longer than the red ball. In the day-night Tests in Adelaide, batsmen have averaged 27, while pacers have averaged the same.
Australia vs India Dream11 Captaincy Prediction:
Australia batsman Travis Head is the suggested Dream11 captaincy choice for the second Test. Head has a good record in day-night Tests at Adelaide: in five innings, he’s scored 289 runs at an average of 72 with one century and one fifty.
In the Perth Test, he was Australia’s best batsman, smashing 89 runs. With Marsh unlikely to bowl, Head could be seen bowling his part-time off-spin much more than usual. He has been doing well against India since last year across formats.
BGT AUS vs IND Dream11 Prediction 3 players to watch out for:
The 3 players to watch out for in the Australia vs India 2nd Test are Travis Head, Virat Kohli, and Jasprit Bumrah.
