Team India ended Day 1 of the 1st India versus Australia Test match at 77 for the loss of one wicket at Nagpur. Opting for bat first, Australia started off poorly by losing their openers, Usman Khawaja and David Warner cheaply. However, Marnus Labuschagne (49) and Steven Smith (37) brought some parity. However, come-back man Ravindra Jadeja picked up his 11th five-wicket haul as India skittled out Australia for 177 in their first innings just after at tea to complete a dominating performance. In reply, Rohit Sharma (56*) and KL Rahul (20) stitched an important partnership before the latter got out to debutant Todd Murphy in the second last over of the day.
