Australia would be disappointed with the way they performed with both bat and ball in the first ODI and would look to make a strong comeback in the second game to keep the series alive.
The captain of the team, Mitchell Marsh, would want other batters to support him as he was the lone warrior in the first match, courtesy of a half-century, but was unable to take his team over the line.
As far as the middle order is concerned, it is relatively inexperienced with the retirement of a couple of senior players in the form of Steve Smith and Glenn Maxwell.
Labuschagne would expect to get good support from Josh Inglis and Alex Carey, both of whom can shift gears according to the situation.
Aaron Hadie would also look to put on a strong performance with both bat and ball to prove his credentials as an all-rounder in international cricket.
Bowlers: Nathan Ellis, Ben Dwarshuis, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood
Irrespective of the amount of experience, Australia would bank on their bowlers to come good in what happens to be a do-or-die game for the home side to keep their good record in their backyard across formats in check.
It won't be a bad decision if Australia tweaks their team combination to give a little bit of cover to the likes of Ellis, Dwarshius, and Hardie.
Having said that, the Aussies might not be too worried about their performance in the opening game of the series and would back themselves to bounce back strongly in the upcoming match.
