An unlucky dismissal for Virat Kohli brought the flamboyant batter Suryakumar Yadav to bat in his debut Test match for India. He gave respect to the first ball but made his intentions known by smashing the 2nd ball he faced to the boundary.
Suryakumar Yadav is going to play a fearless brand of cricket and possibly try to fill in the shoes of Rishabh Pant in the batting department. He has started in a frivolous style, and the Indian cricket team will definitely need more from him to get a healthy lead against Australia in the 1st Test match.
India is currently trading the Australian score of 177 runs by 10 runs with Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav on the crease. Rohit Sharma is inching closer to a hundred and is batting on 94 at the moment.
For Australia, Todd Murphy has proved to be a revelation. He has outshined Nathan Lyon to pick four wickets in the Test match so far.
