The second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia is going on in Adelaide. India had a bad start on the first day of the match, where opener Yashasvi Jaiswal fell victim to Kangaroo fast bowler Mitchell Starc on the very first ball. Starc got him out LBW on an out-swinging ball. Along with this, Starc has also taken revenge for the sledging done by Jaiswal in the last match. Yashasvi had beaten Starc badly while sledding in Perth, but this time he could not do so.
The movement of the ball surprised Yashaswin
Yashasvi tried to flick the ball outside the line from Starc, but missed due to movement. The ball went straight into Jaiswal’s pads and the umpire did not delay in giving him out. Disappointed with his dismissal, Yashasvi talked to KL Rahul for some time here, but decided not to review the umpire’s decision and returned to the pavilion. Let us tell you that Yashasvi played an important role in India’s victory in the first Test played in Perth, where he scored a brilliant 161 runs in the second innings after being out for one wicket in the first innings.
Stark took revenge from Yashasvi
It is believed that this was Starc’s reaction to the minor altercation between the two during the first match. When Jaiswal was playing brilliantly in the second innings of the Perth Test, he troubled Starc by saying that he was bowling very slow. Talking about this after the match, the Australian bowler said that he did not hear anything from Jaiswal.
