Jaiswal's Gritty Start: India on 16/1 at Lunch - 2nd Test Live
It's day one of the second Test, and we're already seeing some drama unfolding at the crease. The Indian openers, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma, came out all guns blazing, but the early dismissal of Rohit has put India on the back foot slightly.
Let's break down what happened in the first session:
- Jaiswal's grit: Yashasvi Jaiswal, making his Test debut, showed incredible resilience against the Australian bowlers. He looked solid from the get-go, facing a barrage of bouncers and some clever line and length bowling. He's currently batting on 11, a crucial knock for India in this crucial Test match.
- Rohit's wicket: Unfortunately, Rohit Sharma fell victim to a good delivery from Pat Cummins. He looked to be set, but a loose shot ultimately led to his downfall. Rohit's dismissal left India on 16/1, and it was a moment that definitely shifted the momentum.
What to expect next:
It's going to be a tight session for India. They need Jaiswal to continue his solid start and build a partnership with whoever comes in next. The Australian bowlers are looking hungry for wickets, and the pressure is on the Indian batsmen to respond.
Keep an eye on these key things:
- Jaiswal's temperament: Can he withstand the pressure and continue to build a solid base for India?
- The bowling attack: Will the Australian bowlers maintain their intensity and try to break India's resistance?
- The partnerships: Who will Jaiswal form a partnership with, and how long will it last?
