    India finish Day 2 on high note

    So, that's the end of Day 2 in Nagpur. A wonderful day for India as they were dominant yet again. Captain Rohit Sharma showed the way with a brilliant hundred. While some other batters did not chip in, Axar Patel and Ravindra Jadeja did find batting life on a left-handed threatening pitch. The Aussies might be missing Ashton Agar but there were a few moments for Lyon too but India played well. With the 144-run lead in the bank, India are well above and will want to dominate further. See you, tomorrow.

    Fifty for Axar

    It's fifty for Axar Patel as well. Who said left-handers can't bat here? Obviously, the left-arm spin is not there for Australia to create that angle but they have batted well against the likes of Lyon and Murphy on a rough patchy surface. After Jadeja, it's fifty for Axar Patel as well.

  • 4:32 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Lower order power

    This is getting very frustrating for the Aussies. After Jadeja, Axar is also inching towards his half-century. India's tail has wagged and the Aussies need to do something about it.

  • 4:14 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    An even contest

    This has been an even contest so far. Rohit Sharma dictated terms with the bat, but after he was dismissed, the Australians have explored every opportunity to restrict the Indian scoring and it has worked for them.

  • 3:57 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    Jadeja, Axar swell lead

    The two left-handers are out in the middle. And they are piling up more runs for India. The hosts are closing in on 300 and have a lead of over 100 now. This is going well for India.

  • 3:36 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Half-century for Ravindra Jadeja

    5 wickets with the ball and 50 runs with the bat, Jadeja is having a great Test match. He knows the value that he brings to this team and he has held one end just like his skipper Rohit Sharma did earlier today. The extent of India's lead largely depends on how Jadeja goes about his business from here on.

  • 3:12 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    India in spot of bother

    The Indian team was looking rock solid till the end of 2nd session, but Australia have fought hard with two early wickets in the final session of Day2. India in dire need of a big lead here in Nagpur

  • 2:56 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Aussies strike again

    For Australia, it has been Todd Murphy all along, the Aussie debutant has claimed 5 wickets and he has been absolutely spectacular so far. Australia haven't used Lyon much because Murphy has been doing the talking with the ball.

  • 2:40 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Skipper picks up skipper

    Finally some respite for Australia. Rohit Sharma has been dismissed by Australian skipper Pat Cummins. It will certainly dent India's hope to get a big lead, but Jadeja is still out there with KS Bharat

  • 2:30 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    India look to finish strong

    Virat Kohli fell on the very first ball of the second session, but it has been Rohit Sharma's gritty batting all along. The Indian skipper has led India's charge and he is going strong. Crucial session this for the Indian cricket team.

  • 2:20 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    Tea on Day 2

    Its tea on the second day of the match and India continue to lead the Nagpur Test. There was some respite for the Aussies as well as they got two wickets while India took the lead. Sharma has been fabulous on the pitch and is being ably supported by a left-hander Ravindra Jadeja as India are on 226/5. With two batters well set and Bharat and Axar to come in, they would want another 120 runs.

  • 2:08 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Jadeja survives

    Ravindra Jadeja has been playing well at one end, but it was Todd Murphy who threatened him. Australia felt that they had trapped Jadeja and went for the DRS, but he is safe

  • 1:42 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Jadeja and Sharma show underway

    Ravindra Jadeja has been steady and has looked good in this partnership with Rohit Sharma. Rohit has scored a brilliant century and has found ample amount of support from the other end.

  • 1:02 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    Sharma smashes historic hundred

    The Indian captain has risen to the big occasion in the Nagpur Test. He has smashed a hundred on not-so-great batting pitches. He has shattered a few records as he became the only captain in the world to score tons in all three formats and went past Steve Smith in the century tally in International cricket. This is also his first hundred in a Border-Gavaskar series.

  • 12:45 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    SKY perishes

    Australia are taking giant strides in this game. Rohit Sharma has been batting extremely end at one end, but wickets have continued to tumble at the other end. For a change, this is it is Nathan Lyon who has struck with the ball. Suryakumar Yadav departs, Jadeja walks in

  • 12:20 PM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Virat Kohli falls

    Aussies have the big fish, Virat Kohli falls and guess what? it is Todd Murphy yet again. What a debut match this is turning out to be for Murphy. Rahul, Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara and Ravichandran Ashwin, in the same innings. Some gritty bowling performance this from the debutant

  • 11:35 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    The end of first session

    Safe to say that it has been a decent session for both the teams. India are trailing by 26 runs at this stage and have 7 wickets in hand. Todd Murphy has led Australia's charge and has scalped two wickets in the form of Ravichandran Ashwin and Cheteshwar Pujara

  • 11:19 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Virat Kohli walks in

    The Indian skipper is joined by Virat Kohli in the middle. The Indian skipper looks all set and he will hope that he finds plenty of support from Virat Kohli at the other end.

  • 11:10 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    India 3 wickets down

    Todd Murphy has been in the action for Australia today. After dismissing R. Ashwin, he has ended up taking Cheteshwar Pujara's wicket too. India are 3 wickets down.

  • 11:02 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Rohit Sharma survives

    After his success against Ravichandran Ashwin, Todd Murphy tried to dismiss Rohit Sharma too. The Aussies opt for a review after they think that Rohit has edged the ball to slips. The Indian skipper survives as of now

  • 10:49 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Ashwin falls to Murphy

    Just when the partnership between Ashwin and Rohit was looking solid, Todd Murphy struck. The umpire initially thought that Ashwin had survived the LBW scare, but the Aussies used their DRS and to Ashwin's misfortune, the decision had to be overturned.

  • 10:41 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Aussies trying to make inroads

    The Indian cricket team undoubtedly is in the driver's seat and they look all set to take a healthy lead. The Aussie bowlers have been pretty decent with their line and lengths, especially their skipper Pat Cummins. They are trying to restrict the Indian batters

  • 10:22 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    India in driver's seat

    India are looking to register a big total. They are not very far from Australia's 1st innings total and still have 9 wickets in hand. It is safe to say that the Indian team is far ahead in this game.

  • 10:08 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Rohit and Ashwin tearing Aussie bowlers apart

    Rohit Sharma and R. Ashwin have started from where they hd left on Day 1. The Indian skipper is inching towards his century and he is enjoying some great support from his compatriot Ravichandran Ashwin

  • 9:48 AM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    India make careful start

    The overnight Indian batting pair of Rohit Sharma and Ravi Ashwin makes a careful start on Day 2. As heard in the pitch report earlier today, the ball is spinning a bit more than yesterday. Lyon and Murphy are creating some trobles but they are being negotiated by the Indians.

  • 9:23 AM (IST) Posted by Jishu Bhattacharya

    Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin to start proceedings for India

    Indian team skipperRohit Sharma batted brilliantly on the first day and he will resume the second day's play with Ravichandran Ashwin who was sent out to bat after KL Rahul dismissed Todd Murphy.
