Indian Team: The Indian team defeated Australia by 295 runs in the first test match. With this, the team has taken a 1-0 lead in the series. The Indian team has beaten Australia at a time when Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill were not playing. Jasprit Bumrah, Yashaswi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli performed strongly for the team. Virat and Jaiswal scored centuries, while Bumrah took 8 wickets in the match. It is because of these players that team India has been able to win the match. While debutants Nitish Kumar Reddy and Harshit Rana performed well in the first Test match of their career.
Praised by Harshit and Nitish
Captain Jasprit Bumrah was impressed by the fearless attitude and maturity of debutants Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy. Bumrah said that the biggest positive thing when he made his debut was that he was not nervous at all. It didn’t look like he was playing for the first time in Australia or that it was his first match. Rana claimed the crucial wicket of Travis Head with a brilliant delivery in the first innings and did not shy away from commenting on veteran Mitchell Starc despite the two playing together for Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. Apart from this, Reddy also contributed 41 and 38 runs in both the innings.
Yashaswi Jaiswal played an innings of 161 runs
Similarly, Yashaswi Jaiswal, who is playing his first Test in Australia, played an important role in the team’s victory by playing an innings of 161 runs. Bumrah said that this is the best innings of Jaiswal’s career so far. If I had to pick man of the match, I would pick Jaiswal. I think this is his best Test innings so far because you know he plays aggressively. But in the second innings he dropped the ball a lot, took his time and batted back to the crease. This gives a lot of confidence.
Jasprit Bumrah said that when conditions are difficult I think how I can contribute. This happens even when I am not leading the team. In such a situation, whenever a difficult situation arises, I try to find an answer. I am comfortable putting myself in difficult situations.
