Australia vs India, Ist Test, Day 2, As it happened: Head resists Indian bowlers

Indian bowlers will be eager to restrict Australia on Day 2 of the Australia vs India first Test

Indian bowlers will be eager to land quick blows on Australia

Adelaide, December 7: Indian bowlers will be eager to strike regularly on Day 2 of the first Australia vs India Test at the Adelaide Oval on Thursday (December 7). India had crawled to 250 for 9 at stumps on Day 1, courtesy a gutsy hundred by Cheteshwar Pujara (123) before getting run out in the last over of the day.

UPDATES IN HINDI

The bowlers will have to copy Pujara's tenacity to keep Australia on the hooks and they can also take a cue from the discipline showed by the home side bowlers. Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins and Nathan Lyon were on the money throughout on a hot Thursday (December 6), and therein the Indian bowlers have a blueprint. So, here's MyKhel's Live Update of Day 2 proceedings.

Dec 07, 2018, 9:07 am IST

Shami is bowling in full throttle as there was a bit of concern when the physio attended to his shoulder. Looks pretty fine

Dec 07, 2018, 8:33 am IST

That 250 has all of a sudden assumed a bigger proportion and Handscomb is not looking comfortable at all against Ashwin

Dec 07, 2018, 8:18 am IST

Usman Khwaja and Marcus Harris have been steady so far without letting go chances to score.

Dec 07, 2018, 6:52 am IST
