Jasprit Bumrah's stunning 4/17 led India's comeback on Day 1 of the first Test against Australia in Perth. After opting to bat, India were dismissed for 150, with debutant Nitish Reddy (41) and Rishabh Pant (37) showing resistance. Australia's pace attack, led by Josh Hazlewood (4/29), dominated. Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj (2/17) exploited the green Perth wicket to reduce Australia to 67/7 at stumps, trailing by 83 runs. Debutant Harshit Rana also impressed with a key wicket. Bumrah’s spell, highlighted by dismissing Steve Smith and Usman Khawaja, turned the match in India's favor after a shaky start.
