The intense rivalry between India and Australia is on full display as the two are currently engaged in an intense battle at the Adelaide Oval. The Pink Ball Test, which saw India collapse for their all-time lowest Test total, has once again raised the heartbeats of millions of Indian cricket fans.

India, who lost Yashasvi Jaiswal for a duck, were granted a lifeline as KL Rahul survived a scare. Boland seemed to strike on his very first ball, and KL Rahul even started walking back. Seeing him, Virat Kohli came out to the boundary, all padded up and ready to give the Aussies a run for their money; however, the umpire halted both players to check the fairness of the delivery.

Richard Illingworth, who previously raised his finger indicating that it was a wicket, was asked by the TV Umpire to reverse his decision as the bowler had overstepped. As revealed by the Snickometer, the bat was not involved, and KL Rahul was not out. It would have been interesting to witness only if Boland had stayed within the bounds.

Kohli Sent Back After KL Gets A Lifeline


KL, Kohli, Gill Fall; India In Trouble Before Tea

Earlier in the game, India won the toss and opted to bat first. They visitors were jolted right at the beginning as they lost Yashasvi Jaiswal for a golden duck. However, KL Rahul and Shubman Gill tried to stabilise the innings by building a good 50+ run partnership, before losing the Karnataka born batter and thus began the collapse of Indian batters.

Before tea, India lost two key wickets in quick succession as first Virat Kohli departed for seven runs off 8 balls and Shubman Gill too followed his footsteps. At the time of writing, Captain Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant are out at the crease as India is at 82/4.
