Head to Head
India continued their recent record in Australia, beating the hosts in the first Test.
Australia Form
Australia started the first Test in great form, bowling first and dismissing India for 150 runs. It was a superb start which set them up for victory, however, the hosts’ batsmen failed to deliver.
In response to India’s 150, Australia were all out for 104 runs as Mitchell Starc top scored with 26 runs. The pitch flattened out thereafter which saw India amass a total of 487 before declaring.
Needing a very unlikely 534 to win, Australia lost their first four wickets for 17 runs and were five down for 79. Travis Head’s 80 along with some other lower order runs helped Australia to 238 before being all out and losing by 295 runs.
