Head's wife in awe after batter's centuries on children's first games

The opening day of the Adelaide Test match between India and Australia was a captivating blend of humor and intensity. A technical error during the 24th over saw India's Mohammed Siraj's delivery mistakenly clocked at an incredible 181.6 kmph, sparking a flurry of memes on social media.

The day was not without its share of drama. Prior to the fifth ball, Australia's Marnus Labuschagne was distracted by a fan creating a beer snake near the sight screen, leading to a heated exchange of words between Siraj and Labuschagne. This added an intense moment to the proceedings, much to the delight of Indian cricket fans who humorously revived the 'DSP Siraj' memes.

India's first innings was underwhelming, as they could only muster 180 runs. Nitish Kumar Reddy's resilient lower-order performance was a silver lining in an otherwise disappointing batting display. However, India's bowlers spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah sought redemption with the ball. Bumrah reached a significant milestone by claiming his 50th Test wicket in 2024, joining the esteemed company of Kapil Dev and Zaheer Khan.
