It was sweet revenge for Krunal Pandya at the MCG. He got Glenn Maxwell with the peach of a delivery to make the things worse for Austalia. The celebration by Krunal Pandya reveals how much he wanted to get the wicket of Glenn Maxwell.
As it happened:
The incident took place in the 11th over of the game when Krunal Pandya was asked to bowl his second over. Maxwell, who got better off him in the previous game was once again looking set to dismantle him.
However, this time, Krunal Pandya has been quite brilliant, who never gave the ball for Maxwell to get underneath it. To break the momentum, Maxwell tried to reverse-sweep him but only managed to be in question of an LBW appeal.

Coming to the course of the game, initially, it was once again, Virat Kohli, who won the toss and asked the home side to bat first. Justifying the toss decision, the Indian bowlers delivered the goods at regular intervals of time.
Meanwhile, none of the Australian batsmen looked settled in tackling the Indian fast bowlers thus making things look bleak on the scorecard. Kuldeep Yadav is the other bowler, who troubled Australian batsmen with his mastery.

All in all, the first half of the first innings has gone in team India’s way. Most probably, they would see themselves chasing a below-par total on the board at the MCG.
