India vs Australia: Umesh Yadav Equals Virat Kohli's Batting Record, Surpasses Ravi Shastri

It was a disappointing display from the India batsmen on Day 1 of the third Test match against Australia in Indore as the hosts were bundled out for just 109. Almost all the batsmen failed to get going against the Aussie spinners but Umesh Yadav ended up adding a massive milestone to his name. The fast bowler slammed two massive sixes off Matthew Kuhnemann's bowling and equalled Virat Kohli's tally of 24 maximums in Test cricket. In the course of the match, he also went past former head coach Ravi Shastri's tally of 22 and is currently 17th in the list of Indian cricketers with most Test sixes. Overall, Virender Sehwag tops the list with 91 while MS Dhoni is second with 78.

Exploiting the favourable conditions, left-arm spinner Matthew Kuhnemman picked up his maiden five-wicket haul as Australia skittled India out for a paltry 109 on Wednesday.

India's aggressive approach on a track offering vicious turn backfired as they capitulated in just 33.2 overs after opting to bat.

Like the last two Tests, the pitch was expected to offer plenty of turn but the ball turning square in the first hour of play and the odd one keeping low came as a slight surprise.

Virat Kohli top scored for India with 22 off 52 balls while opener Shubhman Gill, who replaced struggling KL Rahul, contributed 21.

Having lost seven of the batters by the end of the opening session, India could add only 25 more runs to their total with Kuhnemann (5/16), playing only his second Test, ending with career-best figures in first-class cricket.

If it wasn't for Umesh Yadav's 17 off 13 balls, India would have struggled to get past the 100-run mark. He used the slog sweep effectively to end with a couple of sixes and four.
