Australia have named an unchanged team for the second Test against India starting at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Wednesday.

Australia captain Ricky Ponting told a news conference on Tuesday that the selectors saw no reason to tamper with the side that won last week's first Test in Melbourne by 337 runs.
