India vs Australia (Source: AP Newsroom)
It was a horrible day for the Indian side who were bowled out for a paltry 109 against the Australian side, thanks to the rank turner on offer in Indore. The ball on most occasions turned square making it way more difficult for the batters to extend their stay at the crease.
Left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemann bowled an exceptional spell of 5/16 to clean up the Indian innings a few overs after lunch.
To the unversed, the match was shifted from Dharamsala to Indore as BCCI felt that the outfield of former venue is not ready to host an international game.
But things changed drastically for the home team who fell in their own trap as there were some visible cracks on the surface.
People on the social media platform Twitter were furious over the condition of the track as the average turn was around 4.8 degrees that too on day one.
Virat Kohli turned out to be the highest run-scorer for the side with just 22 runs after his name was youngster Shubman Gill could only manage 21.
At the time of publishing , Australia were 104 for the loss of just one wicket after the end of 32 overs of their innings, short by five runs of India's score.
