Frustrating tenth wicket resistance was breached as India bowled out Australia for 104 in the first innings on Day 2 to take a lead of 46 runs in the first test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy.

The score -- 104 is the lowest first innings total and fourth lowest overall for the Aussies against India.
Debutant Harshit Rana had the final say as he dismissed Mitchell Starc. The play will resume after Lunch.
India captain Jasprit Bumrah is the star of the match as he picked five crucial wickets. Harshit Rana bagged three, Siraj grabbed 2 wickets. 

Australia, who lost seven wickets on the first Day, quickly lost Carey on Day 2. Lyon was also dismissed subsequently but Starc and Hazlewood put up a solid resistance to help their side cross the 100-run mark.

Earlier, Team India choosing to bat first after winning the toss managed to put up 150 runs on the board with Nitish Reddy (41) being the top scorer.
