Australia (AUS) vs India (IND), 1st Test Day 2: Ball by ball commentary from Perth

16:09 IST:

Right then, as we call it a day from this riveting first day of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the Perth Test sits delicately poised. India’s next target will be the evergreen Alex Carey, whose lower middle-order heroics – including that match-defining 98 in Christchurch earlier this year – have often swung games Australia’s way recently. As the weekend approaches, the action resumes on November 23, Saturday, at 2.20 am GMT, with our build-up kicking much earlier. This absorbing contest has already set the stage for what is to come in the Tests to follow ahead. Day 2 promises more of the same. Until then, cheers!
