India took the first Test against Australia by storm in the second day of play, dominating a very impressive bowling display. Having been bowled over for 244 in their first innings, India actually dominated Australia with Jasprit Bumrah being one of the major performers by taking five wickets. And while debutant Harshit Rana complemented him with a fiery spell and dismantled Australia’s batting lineup.
