In the 2nd match between Australia A and India A, tail-ender Corey Rocchiccioli played a shot on top of his head, shocking the fielding team and the crowd. The incident happened in the 55th over when Corey was playing on four runs. Prasidh Krishna went on to bowl a bouncer and the batter just chipped it in the air over his head. The ball went behind the keeper and reached the boundary before the fielder could reach it.
But the highlight of the game remains the shot he played on a bouncer. A video went viral on social media where fans are trying to name the shot because it's certainly not there in the cricket books. It looked more like an uppercut, but it wasn't that. We will have to wait for a cricket expert to jump into the occasion and name the shot.

Australia A have taken the lead of 62 runs in the first innings and now the Indian batters will have to prove their worth. The visitors have already lost the first game, so this game becomes extremely important. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and Abhimanyu Easwaran have failed to impress in the series.
KL Rahul fails in the first innings against Australia A
KL Rahul was sent to Australia to play for India A in the 2nd game as the visitors lost the first one quite embarrassingly. However, the player failed to perform in the first innings as he departed to the pavilion with a duck. Because of his poor performance, the player is facing much criticism from the fans and the cricket experts.
India A are batting in the 2nd innings, and this might be an opportunity for all players, including Gaikwad and Easwaran, to perform well and slam the trollers for doubting their performance. Dhruv Jurel was excellent in the game, scoring 80 runs off 186 balls, including six boundaries and two sixes.
