India vs Australia 3rd Test Day 2 Live Score: Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj need to pull up their socks on Day 2 and change their bowling approach after a below-par show in the limited time on Day 1. Despite overcast conditions and enough bounce on offer, Bumrah didn't bowl too many wicket-taking deliveries in that six-over first spell while Siraj (0/13 in 4 overs) was guilty of occasionally pitching it short. In case of Bumrah, he rightly pitched it up but there was very little hint of swing on offer due to high humidity and only on few occasions he was able to square up Khawaja while coming round the wicket. The lines that they bowled, drifted towards the leg-side more often than not.
