New Delhi: Australia Matthew Kuhnemann picked up a five-wicket haul and the visitors bowled out India for just 109 runs on the first day of the third Test in Indore. Meanwhile, Nathan Lyon scalped three wickets.
Ravindra Jadeja picks first wicket for India
For Australia, Usman Khawaja and Travis Head came to open the innings. India started with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja in the first overs of the match.
India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja gave the host their first breakthrough as Travis Head was trapped in front of the stumps. Though the appeal from the Indians was turned down by the on-field umpire, Jadeja convinced skipper Rohit Sharma to opt for the review. And the decision went in India’s favour with the three reds shown on the big screen and Head walking back.
