3 January 2025

Shubman Gill's failed charge of spinner Nathan Lyon's left the visitors reeling at 57 for 3 at the break - on Sky Sport.

It comes after India won the toss and elected to bat first - then lost KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal inside eight overs.

Rahul moved up the order to take the place of captain Rohit Sharma - who's prolonged run of bad from saw him not included in their 11 for the match.

Lyon joined Mitchell Starc and Scott Boland in the wicket-takers column in the opening session.
