**Sydney, Australia:** Day 2 of the fifth Test between India and Australia saw a stunning display of Indian batting and bowling, punctuated by concerns over Jasprit Bumrah’s injury. India, resuming their innings with a slender 4-run lead, extended their advantage to a commanding 132 runs by the close of play. Rishabh Pant’s explosive 61 runs, including a 29-ball fifty, was a highlight, while Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli’s dismissals were disappointments. Earlier, Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna took three wickets each as Australia were bowled out for 181 in their first innings. Bumrah left the field mid-match due to a back injury, casting a shadow over India’s victory hopes. The match continues tomorrow.
