Shubman Gill loses to Cameron Green's ripper, India reduced to 106-5 in 24 overs: WATCH

The Indian side featured in the second three-day tour match ahead of the highly anticipated first Test. The visitors will get a taste of pink-ball cricket prior to the India vs Australia pink ball Test with this practice match. India won the toss and elected to bat first in an attempt to get some runs under their belt before the crucial series. However, Australia A's disciplined bowling attack ran through their top order quickly.

Shubman Gill's promising knock cut short by Cameron Green

Australia A drew first blood with yet another early wicket in the second three-day contest as well. Mayank Agarwal was dismissed cheaply by Sean Abbott. However, a gritty partnership between Prithvi Shaw and Shubman Gill steadied the shop for the visitors.  Gill was looking set for a big score and looked confident at the crease. However, he was ultimately undone by a spectacular delivery.

Cameron Green, who impressed with a remarkable all-round performance in the first tour match, again had a significant impact on the proceedings. The medium-pacer bowled a splendid delivery around the off-stump. The length of the ball forced the batsman to go on the backfoot. It angled away slightly and found Shubman Gill's nick. The batsman was sent back packing after a well-made 43. 

The batting side were in further trouble, as in the very next over they lost their captain. First-match centurion Ajinkya Rahane failed to make a mark in this encounter, and could only manage to score 4 runs. With wickets falling in quick succession, it will be a challenging task for the Indian batting line-up to stage a comeback in this innings.
