India 10-0 (2 ovs) vs Afghanistan | Scorecard

Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay open the batting for India as KL Rahul is pushed down the order.

Fast bowler Yamin Ahmadzai will bowl the first ever over for Afghanistan in Test cricket. A nervous Ahmadzai pulls out at the last minute as he misses the run up.

The next ball is a bit short and comes in as Vijay gets a thick inside edge on the leg side for one but that is ruled a leg bye.

The second ball again moves sharply as Dhawan clips it on the leg side for a single to get off the mark.

Vijay then watchfully plays out the rest of the over as Ahmadzai makes a tidy start.

Fast bowler Wafadar to bowl the second over. The first ball moves away as Dhawan lets it go through and the second ball moves away with extra bounce.

Wafadar seems to have got carried away as he drops short again and this time Dhawan rocks back and slashes it over point for the first boundary of the match.

Three balls later, Dhawan punches another short delivery through the same region for the second four of the over.
