Australia secured a memorable 48-run victory over India in the first Test - now see if the tourists can hit back hard in the second.

Spinner Nathan Lyon was Australia's match-winner - taking 12 wickets - but the home side will be without injured skipper Michael Clarke for the remainder of the series.

Steve Smith will lead Australia in the absence of Clarke, who suffered a serious hamstring injury, on a ground where the hosts last lost in 1988.

Sky Sports 2 will bring you all the action from 11.55pm on Tuesday night – and then remains the channel to head to for the remainder of the four-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.

The schedule has been rejigged following the tragic death of Australia batsman Phillip Hughes during a Sheffield Shield match in November.

The Brisbane Test, initially set to kick off the series on December 4, was delayed to allow players to attend Hughes’ funeral in his home town of Macksville, New South Wales on December 3.

Adelaide subsequently held the ongoing opening Test, with Brisbane (Dec 17-21), Melbourne (Dec 26-30) and Sydney (Jan 6-10) rounding off the series before the two sides, and England, contest a tri-series in one-day cricket in January.

The rest of the series will be belting, so catch it all on Sky Sports!
