If we talk about David Warner's performance in the recent Test series, he was not able to perform well in the first Test in Nagpur. Warner was dismissed cheaply in both innings and he would look to score in the second Test. 

Australia were brutally hammered by the Indian spinners in the Nagpur Test and their technique to play spin was badly exposed. Though Australia played a lot of mind games regarding the Indian pitches, all of these claims were shut when on the same day the Indian batsmen registered a gigantic first-innings total while batting.

Australia have never won a series in India since 2004 and they have also lost to Team India in the previous three instances of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The visitors have to avoid a 4-0 whitewash in the series if they want to avoid losing their chances of playing the World Test Championship final.
