The second ODI between Australia and Pakistan is scheduled to take place at the Adelaide Oval in Adelaide on November 8. The hosts are leading the three-match ODI series 1-0 after winning the opener playing at the MCG in Melbourne. Australia chased down 204 runs with just two wickets in hand as Pat Cummins led from the front with the bat after they had collapsed.

Meanwhile, Pakistan will be hoping for a better show with the bat in the must-win encounter. They were 117/6 at one stage and could cross the 200-run mark only due to Naseem Shah's cameo of 40 runs down the order. Their bowlers performed well with Haris Rauf leading the way through his well-directed short deliveries. The visitors were favourites at one stage to win the first ODI after picking up seven wickets for 155 runs but they couldn't dismiss Cummins.

Australia will be keen on sealing the series in Adelaide itself with another dominant performance. However, they will have to be careful when facing a well-oiled bowling unit of the opposition. The Adelaide surface is unlikely to be as challenging as Melbourne but the batters will have to step up.
