The Australian soil made Indian batsmen dazed off as the Virat Kohli led squad was bundled out for a mere 36 runs in the second innings handing the hosts 1-0 in the 4-match Test series.
Aussies pace attack led by Hazlewood and Cummins gave nightmares to the Indian batting order who failed to score a double-digit to their name. It all started with the fall of the night-watchman Bumrah and then Pujara (0), Mayank (9), Kohli (4), Rahane (0), Vihari (8) and Saha (4) bites the dust to the firing Aussie pace duo Cummins and Hazlewood.
Shami was hurt on the arm by Cummins when India were 36-9 and Australia took no time to chase the winning 90 runs as Aussie openers Wade (33) and Burns (51) finished the job before departing late in the evening. They started aggressively giving Indian pacers no hope to make a comeback into the game.
Australian skipper Tim Paine who scored a vital half-century in First-Innings was awarded the Man of the Match and this is the first time in Kohli’s career where his team lost a Test match after he won the toss.
So, India should leave this bizarre performance behind them before heading to the most prestigious Boxing Day Test match which will take place in Melbourne on Dec 26 in the absence of Virat Kohli.
