We know, we know, you were really bored after Day 1 of the 2nd Test. Don't worry we have found a way to make it interesting. We cherry picked moments that you would've missed while 'sleeping' through the 1st day of the Test match. Enjoy our early christmas gift - 7 things you missed!

The unknown battleground!

As the Indian team wasn’t able to predict the pitch, Virat Kohli was forced to use up his valuable review as India badly needed to break the partnership between Aaron Finch and Marcus Harris. Who knows, if this was some other pitch it would’ve been out!

The lip service.

Rishabh Pant just like the 1st Test continued to sledge the batsman from behind the stump. In this Test, even though he had to stay back as the bowler was Bumrah, he didn’t back down. He came all the way to the stumps just to sledge Aaron Finch.

Did he just Yawn?

After scoring his maiden fifty in Tests, it appeared as if he was Yawning. Check it out for yourself!

Virat Kohli out of nowhere!

In the first Test, Virat Kohli was dismissed after a stunning catch from Usman Khawaja. Today was his day to shine, as he pulled off a brilliant catch to dismiss Peter Hanscombe!

Was it that boring?

It was such an uneventful day 1, we even caught a fan yawning while watching the game!

Here it is:

The Mad wicket!

No one knew when the ball is going to rise or when it was going to keep low. There was a delivery from Jasprit Bumrah which left the crowd and Tim Paine absolutely stunned!

Now, this is scary as we have to bat next!

Unplayable!

This stat will tell you how much pressure Usman Khawaja is under in this series! Incredible!

Usman Khawaja's dot-ball percentage in this series is 87.3%, the highest figure he's ever recorded in a Test series. India are just building incredible amounts of pressure to him, and he can't get away. #AUSvIND

Few players show the knack of being as high on confidence as David Warner is when he comes out to bat, yet amusing circumstances saw the batter hilariously punishing himself. The opener's bat was left dangling by the handle in Hobart on Friday and the willow ensured it left a mark on the Oz legend.

Michael Vaughan has asserted that the Indian team management has got the playing XI wrong for the second Test match against Australia in Perth. Virat Kohli has gone into this game with four pace bowlers and without a proper spinner in the Indian team considering the pace and bounce on the pitch.
