The pair of Peter Handscomb and Cameron Green got off to a good start with 30 runs in the first hour. However, as soon as Handscomb’s wicket fell, Australia’s innings collapsed like a house of cards.

At one point, Australia’s score was 186 for the loss of 4 wickets. However, due to the dangerous bowling of R Ashwin and Umesh Yadav, the Australian team was bowled out for 197 runs in 29 minutes. This time, the pair of Ashwin and Umesh took 3 wickets each. On the other hand, on the first day, Ravindra Jadeja had a feat of taking 4 wickets.
