Aussies spin their way to first Test win over India

Aussies spin their way to first Test win over India

A sublime second session spinning masterclass has seen Australia beat India to take a 1-0 lead in their Test series.

Spinners Steve O’Keefe and Nathan Lyon took all ten wickets in India’s second session, as the hosts collapsed to be all out for 107.

The Indians were set a mammoth 441 for victory but they never looked like getting close to the unlikely target after a top order batting collapse.
