Australian spinner Nathan Lyon finally got his first wicket of the 2023 Border Gavaskar Trophy on day two of the first Test at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. He dismissed debutant Suryakumar Yadav with a brilliant delivery in the innings, to open his account in the wickets column in the series.
Batting first, Australia put on 177 runs before getting bowled out. Ravindra Jadeja picked up a five-wicket haul in his comeback game, to restrict the Aussies below 200. In response, the Indian team got off to a good start but kept losing wickets at regular intervals. Todd Murphy was the pick of the bowlers for Australia taking all four wickets.
In the sixth over, Nathan Lyon finally got the reward for his work, as he dismissed Suryakumar Yadav. He bowled an off-spin delivery from round the wicket, which Suryakumar Yadav drive through the covers. However, the Indian batter missed the delivery as it turned square, and the ball went through the gap between his bat and pad to rattle the stumps. Suryakumar Yadav had to walk back to the pavilion for just eight runs in his debut Test.

Todd Murphy’s dream debut at Nagpur against India
Australian debutant Todd Murphy has had a dream game so far at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. He took the two vital wickets of India’s batting pillars Cheteshwar Pujara and Virat Kohli. Both the batters were dismissed to poor shots, gifting away their wickets. Earlier, Murphy dismissed KL Rahul on day one, and Ravichandran Ashwin on the next morning.
Despite Murphy’s effort, Team India took the first-inning lead in the second session on day two of the first Test. They were at 182/5 in around 64 overs, with Rohit Sharma unbeaten on 101 runs, and Ravindra Jadeja batting on seven runs.
