The drama continued in the ongoing D/N Test match between Australia and India as Mitchell Marsh was dismissed by Ravichandran Ashwin in the 63rd over. Well, Rishabh Pant took the catch from behind the wicket to dismiss the batter and took a moment to appeal, and Ashwin half-heartedly did, too. The umpire gave it out, and Marsh walked towards the pavilion.

The plot twist happened when the Snicko showed a flat line, and as the ball was missing the outside edge, the bat flicked the pad. Even Marsh couldn't realize that the ball didn't hit his bat. Instead, he just went away. The same thing happened in the first innings when KL Rahul was out, and he started going back to the pavilion without even realizing that the ball didn't hit the bat. However, he was saved because of the no-ball.

Indian bowlers aren't in their best form as Australia have already taken a lead in the ongoing Test match. The game is getting even more interesting and going away from the hands of the Indians. 

Travis Head scores a scintillating century in 2nd Test match

After getting out on 89 runs in the first Test match, Travis Head finally scored a beautiful century in the 2nd Test match against India. He is the only player who has always troubled India in every format since 2023. Head did it again this time. Because of his century, Australia are now leading in the first innings by 100-odd runs.

None of the Indian bowlers have been effective in the D/N match. While six wickets have gone, Bumrah has taken three out of them, leaving one for Ashwin, Nitish and Siraj. Harshit Rana's terrible bowling will always be remembered in the upcoming times. Had he been a bit effective, Australia would have lost some more wickets.
