**Adelaide, Australia:** Mitchell Starc’s impressive five-wicket haul has left India struggling on day one of the second Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test against Australia in Adelaide. India, after winning the toss and electing to bat, found themselves in a precarious position at 8 wickets down, with Jasprit Bumrah joining Nitish Kumar Reddy at the crease. Starc’s latest victim was Harshit Rana, who was dismissed for a duck.
The match marks the return of Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Ravichandran Ashwin to the Indian side, replacing Dhruv Jurel, Devdutt Padikkal, and Washington Sundar respectively. Australia made a single change, bringing in Scott Boland for Josh Hazlewood. The Australian bowlers will be aiming to dismiss India quickly and capitalize on their strong start. The day-night Test is expected to be a closely fought contest.
