Match Drawn

Australia v India 4th Test MCG Day 1 Close
Toss - Australia elected to bat
Australia 311-6 (86 overs) Labuschagne 72 Smith 68 no Konstas 60 Khawaja 57 Carey 31 Bumrah 3-75

South Africa v Pakistan 1st Test - Centurion Day 1 Close
Toss - South Africa elected to bowl
Pakistan 211 (57.3 overs) Ghulam 54 Jamal 28 Rizwan 27 Paterson 5-61 Bosch 4-63
South Africa 82-3 (22 overs) Markram 47 no Shahzad 2-28

An eye-catching debut from Konstas as he took the game to Bumrah. Mcsweeney should get another go at some point given Khawaja's age.

Pathetic behaviour from Kohli to shoulder barge Konstas. He has been fined 20% of his match fee which is completely meaningless to a man with his wealth (estimated £72 million). Totally deliberate, & has no place in the game, a poor example to set from an iconic player.

A one day ban to take effect today would have been more appropriate.
