Then it will be real test for batsman of both the teams

 

[Shubh]

is prithvi shaw once again ruled out of second test? as per hindustan times report he is still under going a treatment and most likely ruled out and rahul and vijay will get another chance

Most probably India will field an unchanged XI as they don't want to risk in a brand new pitch (personal view).
Australia might replace Finch with Mitchell Marsh and push Khwaja to open (his normal position).

Yes I think so as ravi shastri in an inter view said that Prithvi Shaw will get fully fit by the start of boxing day test match
