India vs Australia Live Score, 5th Test Day 2: Jasprit Bumrah just knows how to boost his team. And he has done it again early on Day 2 of the fifth Test by scalping Marnus Labuschagne, leaving Australia two down as they aim to surpass India’s first innings total of 185. This is Bumrah’s 32nd wicket in the series – the most by any Indian bowler in a series in Australia surpassing the great Bishan SIngh Bedi. The dramatic scene that unfolded on the final ball of Day 1 has added more life to the crucial Test match, which is a do-or-die affair for India. Bumrah and Sam Konstas first got involved into an argument, which seemed to be initiated by the Australian teenager. Bumrah dismissed Aussie opener Usman Khawaja off the very next ball and the Indian players were all over Konstas. (Live Scorecard)
