IND vs AUS: India All-Out for 109 on Day 1 of 3rd Test

Indore: India lost all wickets at 109 against Australia on the first day of the third test match of the Border-Gavaskar Series on Wednesday.

Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bat.  Half of the batting lineup got out within an hour of play by executing ill-advised shots.

Australia brings in Matthew Kuhnemann in the sixth over and the spinner delivers straightaway.

Rohit dances down the track to counter the spin but the move backfires. He is deceived in flight as the ball dips and turns away from him.

Rohit doesn’t get any connection, hence resulting in an easy stumping opportunity for Alex Carey. He departs at 12. Kuhnemann picks his second when he got rid of Shubman Gill, who is caught at slips by Steve Smith. He falls for 21. Kuhnemann packed Shreyas Iyer for 0.  Pujara failed to read the flight of Nathan Lyon so Jadeja did.  Kohli and S Bharat are fighting on a rank-turner pitch.
