5:15 AM IST: A look at the pitch:
5: 07 AM IST:바카라 웹사이트Despite the euphoria of finding an XI fit enough to take on the Aussies at 'Fort Gabba', India have a massive task at hand. Australia will target a minimum of 350, that's considering India striking early with the new ball. Then, up against a fiery pace attack, India will need to bat out of their skin.
5:00 AM IST:바카라 웹사이트Unfortunately, Mohammed Siraj was racially abused again. A report in the 'Sydney Morning Herald' quoted a spectator as saying that a section of the crowd at the Gabba targetted the India pacer. "The guys behind me have been calling - shouting - both Washington and Siraj grubs," a spectator named Kate was quoted as saying by the newspaper. "It started targeted at Siraj and it was a chant similar to the SCG one (in which fans sung to the tune of Que Sera, Sera but substituted the lyrics with Que Shiraz, Shiraz).
4:49 AM IST:바카라 웹사이트Washington Sundar, prior to his unexpected Test debut on Friday against Australia, had bowled over 285 overs in first-class cricket and after dismissing Steve Smith, the Tamil Nadu off-spinner is ready to bowl 50 in an innings if that's what the side wants of him. Here's what he said: "I have always felt that my skills are very good with red ball. I have bowled a lot of overs in first class cricket and first division league in Chennai as well. I was just waiting for this opportunity and last couple of months, we were here, I did get to bowl a lot of overs and improve upon my skills."
4:37 AM IST:바카라 웹사이트India's resilience cannot be questioned but they need to find out the reason behind the spate of injuries, said former Adam Gilchrist.
"A few have been inflicted by the Australian pace attack, but the soft tissue injuries – they'll need to assess why they came about and whether it was something in or out of their control," he added.
4:22 AM IST: India's new-look bowling attack did well in Brisbane on Friday. With better catching, the tourists could have been on top by close of Day 1. Labuschagne rode two chances en route to his fifth Test hundred. While David Warner (1) edged a beauty from Mohammed Siraj, almost every top-order Australian batsmen failed to convert good starts.
Labuschagne too top-edged a pull off Natarajan (2 for 63) to be pouched by wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, shortly after Matthew Wade departed to the same bowler for 45.
Like Wade, Steve Smith was guilty of not capitalising on a start when he became Washington Sundar's maiden Test wicket on 36, although Cameron Green (28 not out) and under-fire captain Tim Paine (38 not out) got the hosts to 274 for five wickets at stumps with the four-match series all square at 1-1.
