LUNCH - DAY 2

Aus 87-2 (45 ovs) vs India 189 | Scorecard

An absorbing session of Test cricket as India staged a great fightback to keep Australia in check and also pick two big wickets along the way.

Warner was bowled by Ashwin for 33 before Smith was caught by Saha off Jadeja for eight as Australia were reduced to 87 for two in 45 overs at the lunch break on Day 2.

Young left-hander Matt Renshaw battled hard to be unbeaten on a gutsy innings of 40 from 144 balls, while Shaun Marsh was not out on two.

Overall, India bowled a total of 29 overs, while just conceding just 47 runs to build up some pressure on the Australian batsmen.

All the four Indian bowlers bowled their hearts out on a wicket getting more and more difficult to bat.

India would be hoping to continue in the same vein after the lunch interval and claim a few more wickets.
