INDIA AND AUSTRALIA SITTING ON A POWDERKEG

The second Test of the Border-Gavaskar series in Bangalore saw some fantastic cricket from both sides in a tough and tense encounter fitting of this rivalry between two modern cricketing superpowers.

There was KL Rahul’s dual half centuries, Nathan Lyon’s stunning eight wicket haul, Shaun Marsh and Matt Renshaw’s stubborn sixties, Ravindra Jadeja’s, Ravi Ashwin’s and Josh Hazlewood’s brilliant six fors and Chetshwar Pujara’s and Ajinkya Rahane’s resistance to name just a few! But the Test match will live long in the memory for the fiery tempers and tense atmosphere.

Whether it is Virat Kohli’s vociferous celebrations, his press conference post game, or Steve Smith’s ‘brain fade,’ the second Test will be remembered for so much more than the cricket.
