Another disappointing start from India as Australia takes charge

David Warner celebrated his ton
India slumped to 161, their lowest total on the tour, before David Warner hit an amazing century as Australia rushed to 149 in 23 overs without any loss of wicket.
This time, the hosts were without Pattinson but Ben Hilfenhaus (4-43) and Peter Siddle (3-42)busted through the Indian giant batting line-up once again while Ryan Harris, replacement for injured Pattinson, dismissed Tendulkar.
Hilfenhaus removed both the openers Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir before helping Starc (2-39) to round up the tail. Siddle bowled Rahul Dravid, being bowled for the fourth time in five innings, and accounted for the middle order batsmen Laxman and Kohli.
David Warner along with Ed Cowan (40) demoralised India as Warner reached the 4th fastest century in the Tests in style, hitting a six over wide long-on.
