Aus 290-5 (89 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Thangarasu Natarajan to open the bowling for India on Day 2. Cameron Green defends the first ball before he offers no shot to the next.

Natarajan then beats Green with a full delivery which moves away to go past the edge. The next ball comes in as Green drives it straight back past the bowler for a four.

He then goes after a wide delivery, looking to hit it through the off-side without any footwork followed by another straight drive for the second four of the over.

Mohammed Siraj from the other end. He begins with a short ball which strays down the leg side before Tim Paine picks a single on the leg side.

The pitch seems to have quickened a bit as the bouncer from Siraj goes way over the tall Cameron Green and even beats the dive from wicketkeeper Pant for four byes.

He then drives the next full delivery straight for a single to mid-off and Paine picks a single off the last ball.
