Australia’s fierce pace attack dismantled India’s top order on Day Two of the fourth Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), leaving the visitors at 164-5, still 310 runs behind Australia’s commanding first-innings total of 474. The day belonged to Steve Smith, who scored his 34th Test century, and the Australian bowlers who capitalized on India’s middle-order collapses.
