India's batting woes persist as Bumrah and Co bowled out for 150 after opting to bat against Australia in Perth
FirstpostHad it not been for debutant Nitish Reddy top-scoring with a knock of 41 as well as Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul’s handy contributions of 37 and 26 respectively, India might have struggled to cross the century mark at the fast and bouncy Optus Stadium in Perth. India's Yashasvi Jaiswal departs after getting dismissed for an eight-ball duck as the Australian players celebrate in the background on Day 1 of the first Test in Perth. India’s shaky batting order was one of the primary reasons behind their humiliating 0-3 whitewash at the hands of New Zealand at home, and they hardly appear to have improved since then as they were bundled out for 150 on Day 1 in Perth after stand-in skipper Jasprit Bumrah opted to bat. Had it not been for his innings along with Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul’s handy contributions of 37 and 26 respectively, the visitors might have struggled to cross the century mark at the fast and bouncy Optus Stadium in Perth.
