Mohammed Siraj gave India an excellent start, but rain interrupted play again after Day 1’s washout in the pink-ball warm-up game, where no toss was conducted. At the time of writing, Australia PM XI were 21/1, with Sam Konstas and Jayden Goodwin at the crease.

India began the five-match Test series with a dominant 295-run win in the opening match. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli scored centuries, while stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah claimed a five-wicket haul.

Skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill missed the first Test due to personal reasons and a thumb injury, respectively. Both will look to get some match time in the warm-up game against Australia PM XI ahead of the Pink-ball Test in Adelaide, starting December 6.
