Australia’s star batter of a generation Steve Smith fell just short of an illustrious career milestone and a Jasprit Bumrah-led India took the advantage on the second day of the fifth and final test against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

SYDNEY - India captain Jasprit Bumrah was absent after lunch on the second day of the fifth test on Saturday, but his team mates still ripped through the Australia batting order to dismiss the hosts for 181 at tea.

Bumrah has captained India in the first and the last Test of the series. The 31-year-old is the highest wicket taker of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series with 32 scalps.

Jasprit Bumrah took the lone Australian wicket as the hosts ended Day 1 at 9/1 in reply to India's first innings total of 185. Bumrah also scored 17-ball 22 to take India's total past 180.

Bumrah, who replaced Rohit Sharma as captain for this test, could be seen on the television broadcast leaving in a car from underneath the SCG grandstands.
