Watch the Full Extended Video Highlights from the Day 1 of the 1st Test between India and Australia from the Bangalore from 9th Oct – 13th Oct, 2008 where Australia look to build on advantage. Brief Score Day I : Australia 254 for 4 (Ponting 123, Katich 66, Zaheer 2-39) v India.
Ricky Ponting erased 12 years of doubt over his record in India by striking a defiant century that gave Australia a marginal edge on the opening day in Bangalore. However, a late pair of wickets – Ponting departed for 123 and Zaheer Khan removed Michael Clarke in the final over – brought India back into the contest on what had until then been a frustrating day for the hosts. At the close Australia had reached 254 for 4 with Michael Hussey unbeaten on 46. Zaheer’s final strike – he trapped Clarke plumb lbw for 11 – gave India’s fans cause to cheer on the first day of Test cricket in the country since the frenetic and colourful IPL. The contrast between the game’s longest and shortest formats was stark as Australia’s batsmen spent most of the day grinding down the India bowlers. Watch the Full Highlights from the Day I below :
