IND vs AUS 2nd T20I MCG weather report: Will Melbourne rain play spoilsport today? Pitch report, probable XIs & more

After rain played spoilsport in the first T20I between India and Australia in Canberra, the weather forecast for the second game in Melbourne on Friday doesn't paint a brighter picture either as the high-profile clash could face several interruptions during the game.

While the fans and the player would expect a full game, but the Melbourne weather might disappoint as 92% or 4.5 hour hours of rain predicted on October 31, according to Accuweather.com. The temperature hovered around 18 degrees at the time of the toss at 1:15 PM IST.

However, the rain percentage reduces as the day progresses. There is a 48% probability of rain at 7 PM local time (1:30 PM IST). The good news is that the rain probability reduces further post 8 PM local time (2:30 PM IST) and stays the same till midnight. Having said that, Australian weather has always been unpredictable, as we have seen earlier.
