India vs Australia highlights: India 21/0 at stumps on Day 1, trail Australia by 242 runs

IND vs AUS 2nd Test Live: India were 21 for no loss after bowling out Australia for 263 when stumps were called on the opening day of the second Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Skipper Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul were batting on 13 and 4 respectively when the final session ended on day one. India trail the visitors by 242 runs. Earlier, seasoned seamer Mohammed Shami (4/60) accounted for four Australian batters. However, Australia were once again undone by India's slow bowling as the spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin (3/57) and Ravindra Jadeja (3/68) shared six-wickets between them. For Australia, Usman Khawaja (81) and Peter Handscomb (72 not out) made substantial contributions.

TOSS REPORT

Australia skipper Pat Cummins on Friday won the toss and elected to bat first in their bid to bounce back in the second Test against India. The tourists, who were well beaten in the opener in the four-match series, made two changes at New Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium. Travis Head, controversially left out last time, returns in place of Matt Renshaw. Left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemann makes his Test debut with Scott Boland making way. India made one change from their innings-and-132-run victory last week with fit-again Shreyas Iyer replacing Suryakumar Yadav. Test specialist Cheteshwar Pujara is set to play his landmark 100th match. India haven't lost a Test at the venue -- previously called Feroz Shah Kotla -- since 1987.

09:40 (IST) Feb 17

OVERS 1.5: FOUR!

Khawaja off the mark. Down the leg from Siraj. Khawaja flicks the ball towards fine leg for a boundary. It's a quick outfield and the ball races like a rocket. AUS 8/0

09:38 (IST) Feb 17

OVERS 1.1: APPEAL!

Mohammed Siraj shares the ball from the other end. A loud lbw appeal from Siraj. Umpire says NOT OUT. It was too close.

09:36 (IST) Feb 17

OVER 1: REVIEW and NOT OUT!

A loud LBW appeal from Shami against Warner. Umpire didn't take time and raises his finger. Shami is celebrating. Warner decides to take a review. Replay shows, there is an inside edge. It's NOT OUT. Warner survives.

09:32 (IST) Feb 17

OVER 0.1: FOUR!

BYES! FOUR! Down the leg from Shami. It's too wide. Bharat dives but fails to collect it. AUS 4/0

09:30 (IST) Feb 17

It's time for action!

Australia openers David Warner and Usman Khawaja are making their way to the middle. Mohammad Shami will open the attack for India.

09:25 (IST) Feb 17

It is an honour to receive this cap from you, legends like you have inspired me (On getting the cap from Sunny G). I wanted to play for India as a youngster but I never thought I'd get to 100 Test matches. Test cricket is the ultimate format for me, it challenges you just like life. To all the youngsters, I'd encourage y'all to work hard to play Test cricket for India. I'd like to thank my wife, my family, everyone in BCCI and all my teammates who've supported me throughout this journey.

Chesteshwar Pujara

09:24 (IST) Feb 17

A special cap to honour Test batting stalwart Pujara's 100th Test.

09:24 (IST) Feb 17

Pujara will play his 100th Test today.

Pujara will become the 13th Indian cricketer to join the illustrious club of hundred Test matches. Sachin Tendulkar (200), Rahul Dravid (163), VVS Laxman (134), Anil Kumble (132), Kapil Dev (131), Sunil Gavaskar (125), Dilip Vengsarkar (116), Sourav Ganguly (113), Virat Kohli (105), Ishant Sharma (105), Harbhajan Singh (103) and Virender Sehwag (103) are the 12 India cricketers who have played 100 or more Tests in their career.

09:06 (IST) Feb 17

Australia XI: David Warner, Usman Khawaja, Marnus Labuschagne, Steven Smith, Travis Head, Peter Handscomb, Alex Carey(w), Pat Cummins(c), Todd Murphy, Nathan Lyon, Matthew Kuhnemann

09:05 (IST) Feb 17

India XI: Rohit Sharma(c), KL Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Ravindra Jadeja, Srikar Bharat(w), Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj

09:05 (IST) Feb 17

We'd have batted first as well. The pitch is dry, but I think the application we showed last game put the toss away from the game. You just have to come out and play good cricket, and that's been the chat in the group to not worry about the toss. We are all thrilled for him, his family is here as well. 100 Test matches isn't easy, there have been plenty of ups and downs in his career. One change for us - Shreyas Iyer is in for Surya.

Rohit Sharma

09:05 (IST) Feb 17

We'll bat first. The middle looks like there's grass but bare at both ends. Plenty of turn there, will be a good Test. Cam Green and Mitch Starc aren't playing, but we've got Travis Head coming in for Renshaw, and Matthew Kuhnemann makes his debut.

VISUAL STORY: A slow turner awaits Aussies at the Kotla

READ FULL STORY

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

Lyon would take much confidence if Mitchell Starc passes the fitness test and bowls to create a rough outside the off-stump

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

Aussies are still caught in the left-handers vs right-handers dilemma

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

India are unlikely to make changes to their combination outside Shreyas Iyer coming back if he clears the fitness parameters

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

The spinners, led by the class of Nathan Lyon, are used to bouncy pitches with pace back home

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

The lack of bite on the same surface is going to haunt the Australians

08:40 (IST) Feb 17

It's everything that the Australians have struggled to do. Their camp looks spooked at best. The indecision with the batting order aside, skipper Pat Cummins really needs his spinners to sharpen up

08:23 (IST) Feb 17

STAT ATTACK

08:22 (IST) Feb 17

In the first Test in Nagpur, the spin trio choked the Aussie batters with immaculately tight lines and trajectory before squeezing the life out of the bowlers with the bat

08:22 (IST) Feb 17

India are clearly sniffing the kill. Their spinners will be hunting around the drier patches at the good-length area of the pitch at the Ferozeshah Kotla and India have got the combination just right for the conditions

08:22 (IST) Feb 17

Australia are expected to make changes with Kuhnemann likely to be part of a three-pronged spin attack alongside Todd Murphy, who bagged seven wickets on his Test debut in Nagpur, and veteran Nathan Lyon on Delhi's spin-friendly wicket

08:22 (IST) Feb 17

Left-arm slow bowler Matthew Kuhnemann has joined the Australia squad alongside left-arm quick Mitchell Starc for what is likely to be another gruelling trial by spin
