India vs Australia, 2nd Test Day 2: The second Test of the IND vs AUS Test series, the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, is being played at the Adelaide Oval. India won the toss and elected to bat first, which backfired as Mitchell Starc turned into a monster with the pink ball and ran through India’s batting line-up. India were bowled out for 180 runs and Starc picked up six wickets to his name. Australia, however, looked the opposite of India with the bat as they seemed untroubled by Indian bowlers. The opening day ended with Australia finishing at 86/1 with Marnus Labuschagne and Nathan McSweeney still batting. Jasprit Bumrah took the only wicket for the visitors.Â

India vs Australia, 2nd Test Day 2: India will be seeking a strong comeback after being comprehensively outplayed by Australia on the opening day of the second Test. Having entered the match on a high note following their convincing victory in the Perth Test, India were expected to dominate. However, Australia appeared to have put their previous disappointment behind them, coming out aggressively and catching India off guard. For India to bounce back in the match, they will first need their bowlers to restrict Australia to under 250 runs and then the batters to play for at least two full days. Â
