India, 22 November 2025 — India secured a series victory against Australia in the second One Day International (ODI) match held at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Wednesday. The Indian team won by 5 wickets, successfully chasing down Australia's target of 278 runs with two overs to spare.
The match saw a stellar performance from Indian captain Rohit Sharma, who scored a crucial 91 runs off 105 balls. Sharma's innings was supported by Shubman Gill's 74 runs, which laid a strong foundation for India's chase. The duo's partnership was instrumental in stabilizing the innings after the early dismissal of opener Ruturaj Gaikwad.
On the bowling front, Mohammed Siraj stood out with a four-wicket haul, limiting Australia's ability to set a higher target. His disciplined bowling, particularly in the death overs, restricted the Australian batsmen from accelerating their run rate.
Australia, batting first, was led by Steve Smith who scored 87 runs. However, frequent breakthroughs by Indian bowlers kept the visitors in check, preventing them from building any significant partnerships. The result gives India an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
This series win is significant for India as it marks their continued dominance in home conditions and provides a morale boost ahead of the upcoming international fixtures. The final match of the series is scheduled to be played in Chennai on Saturday.
