India’s Disastrous Display:
India batsmen on Saturday were blown away by the Australian pace trio of Josh Hazlewood, Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc.
The Australia bowlers came up with one of their best bowling performances to restrict India to a record-breaking 36 all-out in the first Test at Adelaide Oval, their lowest ever score in test innings.
Their previous lowest total was 42 all out in the Lord’s Test against England on June 20, 1974. This is also the fifth-lowest total overall, and the lowest total by any team in 65 years.
