The 19-year-old Australian batter scored 60 runs in just 65 deliveries in his debut Test and was fierce against Jasprit Bumrah’s first spell, hitting a couple of audacious sixes.

Australia's debutant Sam Konstas stole the spotlight in Melbourne with a fearless 60 against India, earning praise from Steve Smith while handling a heated altercation with Virat Kohli maturely, as the hosts posted a commanding 474-run total.

That wasn't all. In the 11th over, Konstas topped his previous assault on Bumrah, bludgeoning 19 off the India quick, hitting two fours and a six to go with a double. The two overs meant that Konstas' 34 runs off 33 balls faced by Bumrah are the most any batter has scored off him in Tests, going past 25 off 40 by Alastair Cook in 2018.
