Australia Levels Series with Dominant Win Over India

Australia rebounded from a heavy defeat in the first Test to secure a commanding 10-wicket victory over India in the second Test at Adelaide, leveling the Border-Gavaskar series at 1-1. Mitchell Starc and Pat Cummins were key to Australia's triumph, with Starc taking six wickets in the first innings and Cummins claiming five in the second, as India struggled to score, managing only 180 and 175 runs. Travis Head's impressive 140 in Australia's first innings set the tone for their dominance, which continued as they chased down a mere 19 runs for victory without losing a wicket. The match showcased Australia's strong record in pink-ball Tests, extending their unbeaten streak at Adelaide Oval to eight. India's batting vulnerabilities were highlighted, particularly their inability to recover from early setbacks, with Rishabh Pant's dismissal signaling the end of their hopes for a comeback. The series now moves to the third Test, where both teams will vie for supremacy in this prestigious contest.
