Rahul, Jaiswal swell India's lead

November 23, 2024


Ind 116-0 (46 ovs) & 150 vs Aus 104 | Scorecard

Mitchell Marsh comes back into the attack. He offers some width as Jaiswal cuts the pacer through point for a boundary -- the first of the post-tea session and the first for India after 25 overs.

India's openers have shown great patience. They still have plenty of time in hand, they will look to bat the next 3-4 sessions and bat Australia out of the contest.

Rahul plays a nicely-timed cover drive off Starc for three runs as the fielder gives chase and Jaiswal takes one on the leg side.

The match is drifting along, not much happening for both teams. India are slowly collecting the runs, while Australia despite not getting the wickets are keeping things tight.

Jaiswal picks Marsh on the leg side for one before Rahul does well to get his bat down as the full ball stays low.
