AUS vs IND 1st Test Results

8:13 AM IST Right then, that wraps up our coverage of the first Test - a match with its fair share of ebb and flow, not necessarily in momentum between the two teams, but in the intrigue each day's play brought. This is just the beginning of what promises to be a crackerjack five-match series. The excitement will ramp up even further as we head to Adelaide for the second Test, a pink-ball Day-Night contest that promises its own set of challenges. The second Test begins on Friday, 6th December, with the first ball to be bowled at 4 am GMT (9.30 am IST). As always, our build-up will start much earlier. Until then, take care and goodbye!

8:02 AM IST The Indian skipper, Jasprit Bumrah is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his superb showing with the ball. He says that he is happy with the way the team responded after being put under pressure in the first innings. Shares that he played here in 2018 and knew that the wicket here is a little soft early on and it gets quicker as the game progresses. Adds that this deck was not as spicy as they were expecting. Mentions that the talk was about having faith in one's ability and even if you do not have the experience, you can do something special. Feels that this was the best knock of Yashasvi Jaiswal's career and how he adapted to the demands of the situation. When asked about Virat Kohli, he replies that it did not look like Kohli was out of form looking at how he was batting in the nets.

8:01 AM IST The captain of Australia, Pat Cummins says that it is very disappointing and that they will take a couple of day's rest and then get back to the preps for the Adelaide Test. Adds that they didn't really give themselves a chance in all the facets. Further believes that they should have done well on the first day with the bat. Says that it's a long summer ahead and the sample size is very small. Mentions tthere's a lot of experience out there in the dressing room and says they very well know how to come back. Ends by saying they will have a detailed conversation about where things went wrong and come stronger and more prepared for Adelaide.

7:59 AM IST Time for the presentation ceremony...

7:57 AM IST Head continued to impose himself on the Indian attack, while Marsh, who had looked shaky before the Lunch break, also found his footing. As he has often done, Bumrah broke through on his return to the attack by removing Head. When Marsh dragged one back onto the stumps off Nitish Kumar Reddy's bowling, one end was opened for the tourists, and it was only a matter of time before they sealed the deal. This 295-run win marks India's biggest win in Australia in terms of runs, as they clinch a memorable victory.

7:54 AM IST Earlier on Day 4, Australia were rocked early with the dismissal of Usman Khawaja. Steven Smith and Travis Head then stepped up, with Smith making a conscious adjustment to not shuffle across his stumps. The indifferent bounce troubled both, and while Head started with caution, he gained confidence as the innings progressed, beginning to unleash his shots. Smith was undone by a beauty from Siraj, but Head held firm and stitched together another solid stand with the local boy, Mitchell Marsh.
