The Oval: Australia get off to a good start against India in World Test Championship final. When the information was finally received, Australia was 113 runs for the loss of three wickets. Steven Smith(12) and Travis Head(28) are at the crease. Mohammad Shami, Mohammad Siraj and Shardul Thakur took one wicket each for India.
India took their first wicket in the fourth over. Mohammad Siraj started the first wicket-hunt by getting Usman Khawaja into the hands of wicket-keeper Srikar Bharat in an outswinger that reached a speed of 144 kmph. Khawaja returned with 10 balls straight without opening his account. After that, Warner and Labuschagne made a partnership of 69 runs. Shardul Thakur broke this partnership by returning Warner who had established himself. Warner’s score was 43 runs.
Immediately after, Labuschein also returned, and Australia’s position deteriorated. Mohammed Shami returned Labuschey who scored 26 runs. With that, Australia reached the level of 76 for three. But Travis Head and Smith save the team in the fourth wicket. The head bat is bowled in ODI style. The player has already hit six boundaries. Smith bats defensively.
India won the toss and chose to bowl. When Indian skipper Rohit Sharma got the toss, who came out with four pacers on a pitch full of green, Thellum did not have to think about choosing to bowl. Along with Mohammad Shami and Mohammad Siraj, Umesh Yadav and Shardul Thakur are Indian pacers. India plays only one spinner. Ravindra Jadeja has been included in the final eleven considering Ashwin’s batting. Srikar Bharat is behind the wicket.
