India vs Australia 2nd ODI Highlights: India Beat Australia By Eight Runs To Take 2-0 Lead
India vs Australia 2nd ODI Highlights: Virat Kohli was adjudged player of the match for his knock of 116 runs off 120 balls.
India bowlers displayed a spirited performance after Virat Kohli's century as the hosts defeated Australia by 8 runs in the second ODI in Nagpur, to take 2-0 lead in the five-match series. Australia were off to a confident start as the opening pair of Usman Khawaja and Aaron Finch added 83 runs for the first wicket in 14.3 overs. Khawaja, in particular, was looking in good touch as he scored 38 off 37 balls that included 6 boundaries. Finch found some touch with the bat as he scored 37 off 53 balls. His innings included 5 fours and a six. Following the loss of openers in quick succession, Peter Handscomb and Shaun Marsh (16) rebuilt the Australian innings. But India again struck back with the wickets of Marsh and Glenn Maxwell (4). It was then up to Marcus Stoinis and Handscomb to steer Australia's run-chase. However, a brilliant throw by Ravindra Jadeja removed a well-set Handscomb. Australia lost half their side on 171. But Stoinis and Alex Carey's 47-run stand brought Australia close to the target. However, a tight bowling display in the death overs by Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami ensured that Vijay Shankar gets 11 runs to defend in the final over. Shankar gave away just two runs and dismissed the remaining two batsmen to bowl out Australia for 242 in 49.3 overs. Earlier, riding on Kohli's 40th ODI century, India scored 250 runs in 48.2 overs. Kohli was ably supported by Vijay Shankar, who made 46 off 41 balls. (SCORECARD)

12:42 IST:Â Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the second ODI between India and Australia in Nagpur.
India's bowling, spearheaded by death-overs specialist Jasprit Bumrah, has been impeccable and it reflected in the first ODI, when he made Aussies dance to his tunes. Along with the Gujarat pacer, Mohammed Shami is proving to be a lethal weapon in Kohli's armoury. Chinaman Kuldeep Yadav (2-46 in the first ODI) has been leading the spin attack and is effective in the middle overs.
But, it will be interesting to see if Ravindra Jadeja, who remained wicket-less in his miserly effort, gets another chance or Yuzvendra Chahal comes back to the playing XI. Australia, on the other hand, will need to pull one back to ensure that the hosts do not double their advantage early in the series. For their coach Justin Langer, out of form skipper, Aaron Finch would be a definite concern.
