Late surge from Mohammed Shami (2/83) and Varun Aaron (2/95) helped India pick six wickets as Australia posted 354 on the board at the end of first day's play. Catch all highlights here.
Australia finish of 354/6, courtesy a scintillating ton from David Warner (145). Michael Clarke (60) too looked in fine touch until a back strain forced him to retire hurt. Steve Smith carried the Australian innings forward and is unbeaten on 72. For India, Ishant Sharma was the best bowler of the day, finishing with figures of 1/56. Varun Aaron (2/95) and Mohammed Shami (2/83) rounded off frustrating starts with late wickets. With an set Steve Smith in the middle and Mitchell Johnson still to come, Aussies are in command despite some late stutter. Onus on Indian bowlers to strike early on Day 2 and wrap up the Aussie tail. An interesting Day 2 ahead.
