5th Test Day 2 | IND vs AUS HIGHLIGHTS: Pant's fiery fifty helped India take their lead past 140 on Day 2 with all to play for on Day 3 now. Sundar and Jadeja are at the crease.
Day 2 od the 5th test between India and Australia saw India take their lead to 145 runs after bundling out the Aussies to just 181 runs in the 1st innings. Rishabh Pant's fiery half century was the pushing factor for the visitors who lost early wickets yet again on the day. Virat Kohli too lost his wicket to Scot Boland, who went on to pick 4 wickets on the day. It is Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja who will continue India's innings on Day 3 on a pitch that isn't looking to give the batters an easy time anytime soon.
For Australia, Beau Webster (57) scored a half-century on debut, but once he was dismissed, India swiftly dismantled the tail.
Earlier, resuming at 9/1, Australia lost Marnus Labuschagne (2) early.
Siraj then struck twice in four balls, removing Sam Konstas (23) and Travis Head (4), leaving the hosts at 4 for 39. Steve Smith (33) and Webster (28) added a quick 57 for the fifth wicket, but Prasidh sent Smith back just before lunch. India second innings scorecard at stumps:
