India vs Australia 2nd Test, Day 2: Live Score and Updates
On Day 2 of the second Test match between India and Australia at the Adelaide Oval, India faced a challenging situation after ceding momentum to the Australians. Opting to bat first, India’s batting lineup struggled, starting with Yashasvi Jaiswal, who fell leg-before to an in-form Mitchell Starc. Starc was in top gear, claiming a stunning six-wicket haul. KL Rahul and Shubman Gill attempted to stabilize the innings but could not withstand the combined efforts of Starc and Scott Boland, which led to a collapse. As a result, India found themselves at a precarious 87 for five.
Nitish Kumar Reddy’s resilient 42 provided some relief, steering India to a total of 180 before Starc claimed his sixth wicket to end the innings.
As Australia took to the crease under the lights, India’s pace attack, apart from Jasprit Bumrah who dismissed Usman Khawaja, faltered. Mohammed Siraj and Harshit Rana struggled to control their lines with the pink ball, allowing the Australian batsmen to capitalize. Marnus Labuschagne and Nathan McSweeney ended the day at the crease, reducing Australia’s deficit to just 94 runs by stumps.
The Indian team will need a robust comeback in the following sessions to regain control of the match and counter Australia’s momentum. Stay tuned for live updates and scores from the ongoing Test.
