Border Gavaskar Trophy: India is hosting a Test Series for Australia and it started with two debutants Suryakumar Yadav and KS Bharat. In the eagerly anticipated opening Test of the four-match Border Gavaskar series in Nagpur, Kona Srikar Bharat made his Test debut for India after being chosen ahead of Ishan Kishan.

KS Bharat and Suryakumar Yadav debut in Border Gavaskar Trophy

The 29-year-emotional old's reaction was understandable given that he had to wait a long time in the wings before being given the chance to don the Indian whites. In the opening match of the Nagpur Test series, India fielded two newcomers as the hosts also selected No. 1 T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav over in-form Shubman Gill. As it turned out, KS Bharat's mother was present at the Nagpur location, and she and the Andhra Pradesh wicketkeeper-batter shared a touching moment after obtaining his Test cap.

Bharat hugged his mother, who was also overcome with emotion at seeing her son fulfil a long-held desire. Before the toss, Bharat was seen hugging his mother, and stadium photographers did not miss the touching moment.

After Warner’s wicket, Ravinder Jadeja showed his skills. He caught all three batsmen Steve Smith, Marnus Labuschagne and Mett Ranshaw in his spin and broke the partnership of Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne for the third wicket. After 42 overs, Australia is 109/5. However, Labuschagne is about to complete his another Test half century. Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami became the most affective bowlers till the overs.
