Raj Limbani strikes early: The dismissal of Sam Konstas​

The match commenced with a moment of brilliance from Raj Limbani, the young Indian bowler, who delivered a peach of a delivery to dismiss Australian opener Sam Konstas. Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Australia was looking for a solid start to gain momentum in the crucial encounter.
