Aussies at lunch are 76/2 Marnus Labuschangne and Steve Smith at the crease. After 2 quick scalps, one each by Mohammad Siraj and Mohammed Shami in the initial overs, Usman Khawaja and David Warner walked back to the pavilion with single-digit scores.
Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschangne are looking solid in the middle by counter-attacking the spin department. They at present have stitched a 74-run partnership for a total score of 76 for the loss of 2.
Well set at the crease, Both will look to steer the Aussies to a formidable total by the end of the day's play. Lacking experience in the subcontinent the middle order onwards Smith and Labuschangne will have to dance to the tunes of the skilled spin unit of the Indians which is going to be a strenuous task.
