India smash Australia by an innings and 73 runs
Australia have lost the 1st Test of the PC Border-Gavaskar Trophy by an innings and 73 runs, a depressing start to the series. They were dismissed for just 143 in their second innings, a very poor match for the Aussies.
rahuldravidfan has been awarded the MOTM award, making him the leader of the MVP leaderboard for his 265 in the first innings. He wasnt the only candidate, as his teammate, off-spinner Callum Gray was great with the ball, with 8 wickets for the match, definitely not a push-over.
Australia lost their last 4 wickets a short time after the start of the session, with holdenator only managing 2 runs, whilst hedger_14 only got 4 and BKB1991 making a 9-ball duck. 20/20 PRO was left standing not out on 7*. RDF and Mihir Doshi were the star of the bowlers, getting 3 wickets each, whilst the off-spinner Callum Gray and quickie bladescape 2 wickets each, giving India a relatively easy win due to Australia`s batting failures.
Australia will ponder over the loss while India will be celebrating after such a satisfying win. The Aussies will look to improve in the next test of the 5-match series, and India will look to carry this superb form to the next test.
Note- Update was short due to the session ending quite abruptly. First post will be updated soon for the runs scored and wickets taken and the MVPs.]
I am rally sorry.
Please give me Sehwag back.
