AUS vs IND Dream 11 Preview:

After a humiliating loss in the 1st Test, India will be looking to bounce back here in the 2nd Test as they take on Australia in the Boxing Day Test. India and Australia have already announced their playing XI. To add more, India will begin the game as the underdogs due to the absence of Virat Kohli and Mohammad Shami. For Australia, they will be hoping that their opening partnership comes good here. Also, a lot will be dependent on Smith here as well.
