Mitchell Starc did a big feat
The start of the Pink Ball Test was nothing special for India. Even though Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill have returned and Ravichandran Ashwin has also been given a chance in the playing eleven, even then Team India was not successful in making a big score in the first innings. The big thing was that Australian fast bowler Mitchell Starc bowled lethally today and troubled almost all the batsmen of India. He showed the way to the pavilion to 6 batsmen of the Indian team. This is his first 5 wicket haul against India. Along with this, he has also given his best performance in Test cricket and has also broken his own almost 8 years old record.
Mitchell Starc dismissed Yashasvi Jaiswal on the very first ball of the match.
Mitchell Starc gave a big blow to India on the very first ball of the match, when he dismissed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. After this, KL Rahul and Shubman Gill batted well for Team India, but they too were not successful in creating a big partnership. Mitchell Starc came in between and kept derailing Team India’s batting. The result was that Team India was out in the first two sessions and could score only 180 runs. Although in the first match of this series, India had scored 150 runs in the first innings, even then they won the match. But against a team like Australia, if you continuously make such scores and think about winning, then it probably won’t be right.
Mitchell Starc gave the best performance of his test career
Meanwhile, Mitchell Starc has achieved the feat of taking 5 wickets for the first time in a Test against India. Now taking 6 wickets for 48 runs has become the best performance of his Test life. Earlier in the year 2016, he had taken 6 wickets for 50 runs against Sri Lanka in Galle. Now this thing has become old. Now this has been his best performance. Although he has taken 5 wickets in an innings 15 times, but this match will probably be different for him, because he has come against the Indian team, which presents a big and strong challenge to him.
Starc dismissed these batsmen
After dismissing Yashasvi Jaiswal on the very first ball of the match, Mitchell Starc also dismissed KL Rahul, who had scored 37 runs. He gave a big blow to the Indian team by dismissing Virat Kohli after scoring only seven runs. After this, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravichandran Ashwin and Harshit Rana were also dismissed by Mitchell Starc. That means Starc had a big contribution in getting Team India out on a small score.
