New Delhi. The Border Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia has started. The first test is being played in Perth. In the first innings, the Indian team was all out for 150 runs. It seemed as if Team India had lost this match. But this did not happen. Australia succumbed to the brilliant bowling of Jasprit Bumrah and his team could only score runs in the first day’s play.
Jasprit Bumrah bowled brilliantly and took a total of 4 wickets. He took the wickets of Usman Khawaja, Nathan McSweeney, Steve Smith and Pat Cummins. First of all he dismissed young batsman Nathan McSweeney LBW. He could score only 10 runs. After this, Bumrah sent Usman Khawaja to the pavilion in 6.4 overs. Kohli took the catch of Khawaja.
Took the wicket of Smith also
Apart from this, Bumrah also sent Smith and captain Pat Cummins towards the pavilion. Smith gave his wicket in the 6.5th over. He was LBW at 0. After this Pat Cummins also performed flop. He was also out in 24.2 overs. Cummins was out after scoring 3 runs. In this way, the Australian team could score only 67 runs in the first day’s play. On the second day, Australia will start the innings with 67 runs.
Australia’s condition is bad in the first test. When the team comes on the second day, it will start batting with 67 runs. Looking at the pitch it does not seem that it will be able to score more than 100 runs. If she gets all out early then India can give them a target of around 200 runs. If this happens then it may be difficult for Australia to chase against the dangerous bowling of India.
