India seals a famous win by a huge 295-run margin at Perth on Day 4 of the first Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy, with Harshit Rana taking the last wicket. A rusty start on day 1, as India dismantled at 150 runs, came back strongly against the "mighty" Aussies. Jasprit Bumrah, who took the charge as the Indian captain in the absence of Rohit Sharma, won the toss and chose to bat. A pure top-order collapse in the first innings got stabilized with Rishabh Pant's 37 and debutant Nitish Reddy's 41 as the score reached 150. KL Rahul dismissal controversy KL Rahul, who opened the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal, was the only one at the top who looked in good rhythm. However, a wild third umpire decision ended his innings at 26 runs. The ball that hit the pad seemed to pass his bat without touching it. However, a spike appeared in the sound radar, but it seemed clear that it came, when Rahul swirled the bat down. The noise, quite visibly, came while his bat touched his pad. The on-field umpire, even though he gave him clearance, got to change his decision after the third umpire felt convinced studying just two frames. Indian comeback, courtesy Bumrah Jasprit Bumrah undoubtedly led the team from the frontline. He all alone took 5 wickets in the first inning, being a total miser, as he gave just 30 runs. It was just Mitchell Starc who seemed like a guardian to the stumps, as he faced 112 balls but scored 26 runs. The other two fast bowlers, Mohammad Siraj and debutant Harshit Rana, took 2 and three wickets, respectively, and bundled the Aussies for 104 runs. Read: Jasprit Bumrah's Aggressive Leadership: Head's Key Dismissal Monstrous target for Australia, Virat Kohli's century India, in the second innings, got a good start with Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul adding 201 runs at the opening stand. KL Rahul, whose innings ended at 77, had shots that rightly defined class and resilience. Jaiswal, on the other side, experimented with shots like uppercuts and sweeps, unless he got out at 161. The main limelight seems to have been on Virat Kohli, who ended his 15-month century drought, as he scored one, on Day 3. As soon as he completes his 81st international century, India declared at 487, posting a target of 534. A surrendered Australia The tired Australian fielders, who had to bat for the last 15 minutes on day 3, lost early 3 wickets, two to Bumrah and one to Mohammad Siraj. On day 4, its time for Australia to go through a batting collapse, unless Travis Head came and scored 89. Later, Mitchell Marsh scored 41, but the chase looked impossible. Apart from Bumrah, Siraj took 2 wickets, and Washington Sundar took 1, that came with a stunning catch from Dhruv Jurel at the point. Harshit Rana wrapped up the match, taking the final wicket of Nathan Lyon with a slower one. The stunner- Nitish Reddy Controversies broke out when the head coach, Gautam Gambhir, selected Nitish Kumar Reddy over Shardul Thakur. Reddy, who debuted in this series, stood strong and even played sweep shots on a pitch where his "seniors" struggled. The innings of 41 runs has to be an important one for the struggling India. Later, in the second inning, he partnered with a rushing Virat Kohli, not only giving him strikes but scoring 38 runs. He made room for himself, making good use of his footwork, and went for big hits. The rookie batted at a strike rate of 140.74 and hit 3 boundaries and 2 over boundaries in the second innings. His first innings, too, had an over boundary. Not only that, the bowler, Nitish Reddy, took Mitchell Marsh, who looked stable at 47 runs.
