“When no one worked, the legend shows his quality; he deserves a statue” – Twitter reacts as Ravichandran Ashwin run through Australia middle-order after all bowlers fail to take any wicket

The 2nd session of Day 2 of the 4th Test match between the Indian cricket team and the Australian cricket team has come to an end. It has been so far the Aussies who have dominated the Indian bowlers.

Usman Khawaja has been their main man. The left-hand Aussie opening batsman has been strong throughout the Australian team inning and has dominated the Indian bowlers, starting from the spinners to pacers.

It was a good start for the Australian team until Ashwin broke the partnership getting the wicket of Travis Head. Marnus Labuschagne followed him soon. Steve Smith tried to form a partnership with Usman but was dismissed by arch-rival Ravindra Jadeja.

But then, Cameron Green joined hands with Khawaja and went on to score a hundred. But then came a magical spell from the veteran Indian spinner Ashwin, who got 2 wickets in 1 over, both of Cameron Green and Alex Carey.

He followed it soon after with another wicket as Mitchell Starc was sent back to the pavilion. Now at the end of 2nd session, Australia finds themselves 7 wickets down for 409 runs with Usman Khawaja still unbeaten on 180 runs in 421 balls.
