Australia Humiliated By Jasprit Bumrah's India; Record Embarrassing Feat In Perth Test

Australia scored just 104 Vs IND [Source: @BCCI/X.Com]

Australia dominated the proceedings against India in the first two sessions on Day 1, but post that, it was a Jasprit Bumrah show as the India skipper ran riot and picked up a fifer to dismantle the home team as they had no answer to his guile and craft.

India got bundled out for a paltry 150 and Australia had the upper hand after the conclusion of the first innings. However, their own batters faltered badly as Bumrah scalped his seventh fifer in SENA country and his second in Australia to bundle them out for a mere 104. Mitchell Starc, the left-arm seam bowler was the highest run-scorer for the hosts which showcases the level of difficulty batting at this pitch.

Australia record second lowest Test total at home Vs IND

Australian batters had an embarrassing batting performance as barring Mitch Starc, none of the batters provided any challenge. The team got knocked over for just 104 and in the process, they recorded their second-lowest Test total against India at home.

Their lowest total against India at home (83) came up in the Melbourne Test in 1981, and since then, Australia have generally dominated the Indian bowlers at their shore. However, they faced the wrath of Bumrah as the Indian skipper ended with figures of 5 for 30.

He was amply supported by debutant Harshit Rana, who scalped 3 for 48 as India puts themselves in the driving seat.

Australia's 5 lowest totals at home Vs IND

India have a 46-run lead in their bag and the batting conditions have improved on Day 2 and hence, the team will hope for a better showing from the batters as India march towards victory.
