IND vs AUS 4th Test LIVE Score, Day 2: At the end of the day, Team India were reeling at 164/5, with Ravindra Jadeja and Rishabh Pant at the crease. Virat Kohli, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Akash Deep fell in quick succession, leaving India 310 runs behind from Australia’s total of 474.
Come the last session of the day, Virat Kohli was tested for his weakness outside off, but he managed to challenge the Aussie bowlers. Yashasvi and Virat took India to 86/2. Soon after, Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a 50 in 81 deliveries. But then, while playing at 82, he was run out after mix up with Kohli. India were reduced to 153/3. Soon Virat also departed for 36.
India have lost two wickets within one session. Rohit Sharma was the first to depart after scoring just three runs. While Jaiswal and KL Rahul managed to fight back and hold fort, Cummins struck at the stroke of Tea to remove Rahul, leaving India 2 down.
A lot was said on the first day at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). Virat Kohli took the fight to debutant Sam Konstas, figuratively and literally. After all that transpired, all eyes will be on how he performs. The Australian media are after him, and that might motivate him to do something special.
Just talking about the day, Australia ended up being the happier side. They did go from 237/2 to 299/6, but with runs on board and a bowling line-up that’s on point, they’ll be happy thinking about what they can do to underconfident Indian batters on the second day.
