India and Australia will clash in the 2nd ODI in Vizag on March 19.

The first ODI, which was played in Mumbai, saw India win with regular captain Rohit Sharma sitting out the first match.

In his absence, Hardik Pandya led the side to a hard-fought 5-wicket victory. 

With Rohit returning to the side, we look at the playing XI that he might go ahead with for the 2nd ODI.

Openers
Shubman Gill's exceptional form is sure to keep him in the side, while Rohit Sharma is set to return to the team. 

Middle-order
Virat Kohli and KL Rahul's places are fixed, so either Suryakumar Yadav or Ishan Kishan will be dropped. Hardik will bat at 6.

All-rounders
Ravindra Jadeja will continue the team at no. 7, followed by Axar Patel, and Kuldeep Yadav rounding the spin department.

Pace attack
After their combined 6-wicket haul, Shami and Siraj will lead the fast bowling attack. Meanwhile, Shardul Thakur might get another chance in the XI.
