Labuschagne, Head propel Australia into lead over India

Marnus Labuschagne roared back to form with a gritty 64 and Travis Head slammed an unbeaten 53 as Australia edged into the lead in the day-night second Test against India on Saturday, reports BSS.

In front of a big Adelaide Oval crowd, the hosts resumed on 86-1 in reply to India's 180 after weathering a torrid two hours on Friday for the loss of Usman Khawaja (13).

India got an early breakthrough with Nathan McSweeney throwing away the hard work he had put in under lights on Friday.

Playing on his home ground, he added just one to his overnight 38 before being beaten by Bumrah's sheer pace, nicking to wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant.

It was the third consecutive time he has fallen to Bumrah after suffering the same fate in Perth last week on debut.
