Indians Dominate Aussies on Pacy Perth

Before the Perth test started, Ricky Ponting & Adam Gilchrist warned India by saying that the fast & fiery pitch at the WACA would favour the Aussies & their fast bowlers would rattle the Indian batsmen. But it was not to be.

After putting up a sizeable 330 in the first innings, the Indian bowlers ran through the entire Australian team in just about 2 sessions. With Irfan Pathan swinging the Aussie openers to his tunes, R. P. Singh picking up 4 & Ishant Sharma finally getting his first 2 official test wickets the Indian bowlers ran through the Australian batting lineup. Anil Kumble’s historical 600th wicket was the Cherry on the cake.

Australia were all out for just 212 runs on the board. It now remains to be seen if India can capitalize on the first innings lead & register a historical first ever win at the WACA.
