India's bowlers, led by Jasprit Bumrah, have taken a commanding lead in the Brisbane Test against Australia, dismissing several key batsmen early in the innings. Australia, reeling at 5-33, are facing a tough challenge to recover from this early setback.
But Bumrah and India have flipped the script, taking a flurry of early Australia n wickets to put the visitors on the back foot at 5-33.
“Are you imagining what we thought was the unthinkable Michael?” Fox Cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle asked colleague Michael Vaughan. The visitors added another eight runs before Akash was superbly stumped by Alex Carey off the bowling of Travis Head, with India bowled out for 260. Play resumed at 12.40pm . A minimum of 73 overs can be bowled today, with a tea break scheduled for 3pm.“For India now it’s a good opportunity – once they do get back on – to try and get a couple of scars in the Australian top order. And it’s a good opportunity for the Australian batsmen to find some form … If they can get in and get themselves a nice little total, that’ll give them some confidence heading into Melbourne,” Lee told Fox Cricket.
“Will Pat Cummins give Rohit Sharma a sniff and say ‘chase 260 in 48 overs’? Could be enticing. Would they go for it, considering they’d want to go to Melbourne 1-1?TALKING POINTS:When Bumrah and Akash came together on Tuesday, the tourists still needed 33 runs to make Australia bat again at the Gabba on another frustrating day marred by delays due to inclement weather.
