It has been a dramatic day of Test cricket at the Sydney Cricket Ground as India showed resilience with the bat and ball on Day 2 of the ongoing fifth and final Test against Australia. At stumps on Day 2, India has a slender lead of 145 runs, with four wickets remaining in their second innings.
The day's play began with India battling to recover from a disappointing first-innings total of just 185 runs. However, India’s bowlers came to the fore, delivering a superb collective performance to bowl Australia out for 181 in their first innings.
Despite this strong showing with the ball, India’s top-order batting woes continued in the second innings. Openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul fell early. The middle order also faltered, with Virat Kohli, failing to stay long enough at the crease, adding to India’s batting troubles. However, it was Rishabh Pant who injected much-needed energy into the Indian innings with a scintillating knock of 61 runs off just 33 balls.
On Day 2 of the stumps, India are at 141/6, with Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar at the crease.
