On Day 2 of the opening Test match, India's Jasprit Bumrah demonstrated exceptional bowling prowess by securing his 11th five-wicket haul in the format, helping bundle out Australia for a paltry 104 before lunch.

Resuming the day at 67/7, Australia added just 37 more runs, with Mitchell Starc's 26 being the highlight of a largely lackluster innings. Bumrah, ably supported by young talents Harshit Rana and Mohammed Siraj, delivered a commanding performance.
