At the close of Day 1, Australia was 311/6, with Steve Smith (68*) and Pat Cummins (8*) at the crease. Australia's top four batters scored half-centuries in the first innings. Jasprit Bumrah, who took 3-75 from 21 overs, broke through Australia's middle order, giving India a chance to fight back in the Test match.
However, the ball seamed in slightly and clipped the top of the off stump. Meanwhile, Virat Kohli, who was standing in the slips, celebrated the wicket with some dance moves. The video of his celebration quickly gained attention and went viral on social media.

Jasprit Bumrah's Crucial Wickets Helped Shift Momentum in India’s Favor
Jasprit Bumrah removed Head as his second wicket in the ongoing Test match. Before taking the prized wicket of Head, Bumrah had already dismissed Usman Khawaja in the second session of Day 1. Khawaja was caught by KL Rahul inside the 30-yard circle after scoring 57 runs off 121 deliveries.
After claiming Head's wicket, Bumrah struck again by dismissing Mitchell Marsh on the last ball of his next over. Marsh, who faced 13 balls, was caught behind by Rishabh Pant for just 4 runs. Bumrah’s crucial wickets helped shift momentum in India’s favor.
Jasprit Bumrah on the Brink of Personal Milestone
Bumrah has taken two five-wicket hauls in the ongoing series. If he secures another five-wicket haul, he will become the first fast bowler to achieve 10 five-wicket hauls in the World Test Championship. Former Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin finished his career with 11 fifers in 41 WTC matches.
