ind vs aus jasprit bumrah out steve smith on golden duck border gavaskar trophy 2024

The performance of Team India’s bowlers in the first match of the 5-match Test series being played between India and Australia has been praiseworthy. Where Team India, which won the toss and decided to bat first, collapsed for 150 runs in the first innings. So in reply the Australian team also could not show amazing results. The Kangaroo team started collapsing one by one in front of the Indian bowlers.

Jasprit Bumrah took the first three wickets of the host team in the first innings, in which Steve Smith was also included. Steve Smith came to bat at number four in the first innings, but he could not even open his account and Bumrah gave him out clean LBW. Bumrah dismissed Smith for a golden duck and created history by doing so in the Test format. Whereas Steve Smith was out on a golden duck for the first time in his Test cricket career on home ground.

In the first innings of the Perth Test match, the Kangaroo batsmen were also facing difficulty in facing the fiery ball of Jasprit Bumrah. In this sequence, when Smith came on the field to bat, he was out on the very first ball. Bumrah gave him out LBW and he became the first Indian bowler in Test cricket to dismiss Smith for a golden duck. Smith had never been dismissed for a golden duck by any Indian bowler in Test cricket before.

Smith’s bat did not work against India in the first innings of the Perth Test match and he remained on the score of zero. This happened for the second time in Test cricket when Smith lost his wicket on a golden duck. Smith lost his wicket for the first time in 2014 in a Test on a golden duck and was made his victim by former South African fast bowler Dale Steyn. Now after 10 years, he was out on a golden duck again i.e. for the second time in the Test and Indian fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah got out on a golden duck.
