india vs australia
IND vs AUS: When the Indian team arrived in Australia, no one would have imagined that the Kangaroo team would be in such a poor condition in the first innings of the Test match. The Border-Gavaskar Trophy series began in Perth on November 22, but the Indian batsmen performed very poorly. Team India could not even play 50 overs in their first innings and collapsed for just 150 runs. After this, the Indian bowlers did something that has rarely been seen until today.
At the end of the first day’s play, Australia had scored 67 runs after losing 7 wickets in the first innings. After this, on the second day, Australia could only add 37 runs to their score and collapsed with a paltry score of 104 runs. In this way, the Indian team players created a new record at the home of Australia. In fact, this is Australia’s second-lowest score in a Test against India at home.

A great miracle occurred after 77 years.
Not only this, this is the Australian team’s lowest Test score in the first innings of a Test match against India at home. In this way, the Indian team has achieved a new record by defeating Australia for the lowest score in the first innings of a test match at their own home. With this, the Indian team has shattered its 77-year-old record. Earlier in the year 1947, the Indian team had performed a great feat by defeating the hosts Australia by 107 runs in the first innings of the test match played in Sydney.
