Australia dominates Day 1 against India in 3rd Test with Kuhnemann's fifer and Jadeja's milestone
Australia leads Day 1 of the third Test against India with two wickets from Kuhnemann and Jadeja.
As Australia concluded Day 1 at 48/1 and trailed India by just 61 runs, they grabbed control of the third Test match. India, who had won the toss and chosen to bat first, were dismissed for just 109 runs in their opening innings due to Kuhnemann's first wicket. Starc had a hot start to the day and struck twice in the opening over, but the umpire declared Rohit Sharma not out. As spinners were added to the attack, wickets continued to tumble frequently. Jadeja and Iyer made an effort to control the innings, but Iyer was removed after 21 runs were scored. India scored 84-7 to finish the opening session.
Australia lost Warner early in the second innings, but
Khawaja and Labuschagne kept their ground and guided the side to victory.
Despite the fact that Ashwin's hit on Labuschagne's pad appeared to be near, the ball-tracking analysis revealed that the off-stump was missed. India's second
review in this procedure was unsuccessful. The head was also ejected by Jadeja, but
the field umpire ruled that he wasn't out. Once the ball hit the stumps, India
requested a review, and the judgment was reversed.
Jadeja reached a personal milestone when he became the
second cricketer from India and the 11th worldwide to take 500 or more wickets
and score 5000 or more runs in an international competition. Jadeja's no-ball
delivery, which may have lost India a wicket, was chastised by Gavaskar. By the
conclusion of the day, Australia had nine more wickets and was just 61 runs
behind.
India was defeated by Australia for just 109 runs in their
first innings, giving Australia a perfect start to the Test match. The
Australian bowlers were a challenge to the Indian batters, as they frequently
lost wickets. When it came to Australian bowlers, Kuhnemann was the best as he
recorded his first wicket in a Test match. India finished the first session at
84-7 because they were unable to recover from the early blows.
Australia lost a wicket early in the second innings as
David Warner was caught for a duck. At the close of Day 1, Khawaja and
Labuschagne batted tenaciously and raised the Australian total to 48/1.
Labuschagne and Ashwin had a close call, but ball tracking revealed that it was
missing the off-stump. India's second review in this procedure was unsuccessful.
Head was ejected by Jadeja, but the on-field umpire ruled that he wasn't out.
Once the ball hit the stumps, India requested a review, and the judgment was
reversed.
Jadeja reached a personal milestone when he became the
second cricketer from India and the 11th worldwide to take 500 or more wickets
and score 5000 or more runs in an international competition. Gavaskar, on the
other hand, chastised him for bowling a no-ball that may have lost India a
wicket.
Australia is in a dominant position in the Test match at
the end of Day 1, trailing by just 61 runs and possessing nine wickets. If
India wants to get back into the game on Day 2, they will need to play better
with the ball. Australia will want to take advantage of their great start to
the game and bat India out.
