Ind Vs Aus: Dismissing Smith, Labuschagne Early Is Big Plus For India: Sunil Gavaskar

By IANS News February 17, 2023 • 15:20 PM View: 584

Legendary cricketer Sunil Gavaskar believes that India has made its task easier by dismissing the top two Australian batters Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith at the stroke of lunch.

Australia looked much in control for the majority of the session with a 50-run open partnership but the momentum changed with the wickets of two best players of spin -- Labuschagne (18) and Smith (0). The duo was sent packing for cheap by Ravichandran Ashwin in the 23rd over.
