Mitchell Starc offers Australia a fiery start against India in Adelaide
Adelaide/IBNS: Mitchell Starc picked three wickets to reduce India to 82/4 at lunch on day one of the second Test in the Border Gavaskar Trophy in Adelaide on Friday.
Starc picked young Yashasvi Jaiswal, who slammed 161 in Perth, on the first ball of the Pink Ball Test match for a duck.
KL Rahul, who survived once to score 37 from 64 balls, was the second victim of Starc, who picked veteran Virat Kohli for seven at the fag end of the inaugural session.
Scott Boland clinched the vital wicket of Shubman Gill who was looking ominous for the hosts.
Gill, who returned to the side recovering from an injury, was dismissed leg before wicket after a solid 31 from 51 balls.
Earlier in the day, India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bat first.
India are ahead in the five-match Test series 1-0.
