IND vs AUS Scorecard, WTC Final 2023 Day 2 Highlights: Top order fails to fire, India tottering at 151 runs for 5 wkts at end of Day 2 | Australia 469 all-out in 1st innings at The Oval
IND VS AUS, WTC Final Live Score, Day 2, Scorecard, Live Updates, Cricket News, The Oval London: Ravindra Jadeja batted valiantly for his 48 runs, but succumbed to Nathan Lyon's guile, leaving India tottering at 5-down on Day 2 of the World Test Championship Final at The Oval on Thursday. Before hi, with Virat Kohli's wicket, Indian batting's top order capitulated before disciplined Aussie bowling attack. India lost both openers — skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill — in successive overs before tea on Day 2, then soon after the break Cheteshwar Pujara too fell at a personal score of 14 runs as Aussie pace attack of Pat Cummins, Scott Boland and Cameron Green wreaked havoc. Australia put up a mammoth total of 469 runs in their first innings, while Mohd Siraj picked 4 wickets.
India picked the remaining seven Aussie wickets on Day 2 to claw back into the game in the first two sessions after Steve Smith brought up his ninth century as second day's proceedings began at the World Test Championship Final. Steve Smith was bowled by Shardul Thakur for 121 runs and Travis Head was caught behind by Srikar Bharat off the bowling of Mohd Siraj for a brilliantly-played knock of 163 runs off 174 deliveries at an almost astonishing run-a-ball strike rate.
Earlier on Day1: Travis Head and Steve Smith helped Australia stage a superb recovery on the first day of the World Test Championship as the duo boosted their team from 76 for 3 to 327 for 3 at stumps. While Head ended Day 1 unbeaten on 146 runs, Smith was also close his century at 95 not out as the duo added 251 unbeaten runs for the fourth wicket partnership. India were off to a good start against Australia on Day 1 in the ICC WTC 2023 Final as Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur struck early in the first session. Siraj sent back Australian opener Usman Khawaja in his second over, while Shardul scalped Warner's wicket. Shami castled Labuschagne right after lunch. While Warner looked dangerous, with Umesh Yadav bearing the brunt of his aggression, Khawaja returned to pavilion withouth troubling the scorers.
