LUNCH - DAY 2

India 64-1 (28 ovs) vs Aus 300 | Scorecard

A good morning session for the Indians as they lose just one wicket while scoring 64 runs in 27 overs to lay a solid foundation.

The key for India was playing out the new ball which the openers managed quiet well as they had to endure a testing spell from both pacers -- Hazlewood and Cummins.

Vijay perished cheaply for 11 as he was caught behind off Hazlewood.

But Rahul continued his rich vein of form, hitting 31 not out, while the in-form Pujara also got off to a good start to be unbeaten on 22.

India would be hoping to continue their good showing in the next two sessions and continue to build their score slowly and steadily.
