India vs Australia, 1st Test: Visitors take firm control as lead nears 300 on Day 2

O’Keefe produced a career-best 6-35 run figures as India lost seven wickets for 35 runs in 15.1 overs in the sensational post-lunch session and were dismissed for 105 runs to hand the visitors a crucial lead of 155 runs.

After being shot out for a paltry total, India hit back immediately through off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who dismissed openers David Warner and Shaun Marsh in quick time.

Australia, who made 260 in their first innings, advanced to 46 for 2 in the second to an overall lead of 201 on a venomous pitch at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium.
