IND vs AUS 1st Test Highlights: India's stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah stole the show with the ball as Australia ended Day 1 tottering at 67/7, in response to India's first innings total of 150 in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at Perth. Bumrah first took the wicket of debutant opener Nathan McSweeney, then got Usman Khawaja and Steve Smith on consecutive balls, and finally dismissed opposite captain Pat Cummins at the end of the day as well. He was complemented superbly by Mohammed Siraj and Harshit Rana, with the later taking his maiden Test wicket by cleaning up Travis Head. Earlier, debutant Nitish Reddy's battling 41 took India to 150, as Josh Hazlewood picked up four wickets for Australia. (Scorecard)
Here are the Highlights of India vs Australia 1st Test Match Day 1, Straight from Optus Stadium, Perth
- 15:37 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: This game is wide openThe scoreboard reads: Australia trail India by 83 runs, at 67/7. But count out Australia at your peril. The in-form Alex Carey is still at the crease, and Mitch Starc can certainly hold a bat. His highest Test score of 99 is against India!
- 15:29 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: Jasprit Bumrah, take a bow.No word of praise is enough for Jasprit Bumrah. A wicket at the start to get debutant McSweeney. Then two in two balls to send Khawaja and Smith packing. Bowled 6 in a row, came back and got his counterpart Cummins at the end. Scintillating. Hard to deny he's the best in the world.
- 15:27 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: Phenomenal day of actionWhen India walked off all out on 150, nobody would've imagined the day would end like this. Jasprit Bumrah led from the front with 4 wickets. Harshit Rana got Travis Head with a cracker. Siraj followed up with 2. Australia tottering, and on the brink of their lowest-ever Test total against India.
- 14:56 (IST)
- 14:37 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: Carey off the markNew into the crease, Alex Carey gets off the mark with a brilliant cover drive. The outfield is slow, so it doesn't go to the boundary, but picks up 3 runs. Would be foolish to count out Australia yet, Alex Carey has been in magnificent form recently.
- 14:33 (IST)
- 14:26 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: A little too fiery from HarshitHarshit Rana is really fired up, and throws back a blocked shot right back at the batter's stumps. Labuschagne was well inside his crease, and seems like a bit of unnecessary aggression on that occasion. But Harshit Rana seems very up for the fight.
- 14:22 (IST)IND vs AUS 1st Test, LIVE: 5th straight over for RanaHarshit Rana (1/16) back for a fifth over in a row. Enthusiastic start to his Test career, and a beauty to dismiss Travis Head so far. What more has he got in store? Marsh and Labuschagne are playing it very safe for now. They need to have a long partnership to bring Australia back into this.
