India gained a 46-run lead against Australia in the 1st Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Perth. Captain Jasprit Bumrah's exceptional bowling (5/30) dismantled Australia for 104 on Day 2. Harshit Rana impressed on debut, taking 3/48, while Siraj grabbed 2 wickets. Earlier, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood frustrated India with a 110-ball last-wicket stand before Rana dismissed Starc. Despite India's struggles in their 1st innings (150 all out), the bowlers ensured an advantage on a tricky pitch. India's batters now face the challenge of building a competitive target as the second innings begins.
