Good evening!

Lachlan Harper

Thanks for tuning into Wide World of Sports' LIVE coverage of day two of the Boxing Day Test.

We'll be back tomorrow!

That's stumps

That's it from day two at the MCG.

Australia have well and truly won that day after those late three wickets.

India are 5-164 with Jadeja on 4 and Pant on 6.

GONE

Lachlan Harper

The nightwatchman tactic backfires horribly for India and that's three wickets gone in quick succession.

Akash Deep hits the ball into his thigh pad from Scott Boland and Nathan Lyon takes the catch at leg gully.

India are 5-159 as Deep departs for a 13-ball duck.

Konstas wowing the crowd and experts

It doesn't matter where the crowd is, Sam Konstas is keeping them entertained.

After that Kohli wicket he puts his hands to the crowd trying to keep the noise going.

"Is that kid in his 100th Test or his first?," Kerry O'Keeffe said on Fox Cricket.

"Has a 19-year-old ever enjoyed a first Test more than Sam Konstas?"

"It's really refreshing to be honest," Michael Vaughan added.

That's a double!

Lachlan Harper

Two in quick succession!

Virat Kohli is gone. He's nicked behind off Scott Boland and departs for 36.

Australia are well and truly on top here.

BIG MOMENT

Lachlan Harper

A moment of madness here!

Jaiswal has been run out after a horror mix up. He's gone for 82.

The left-hander hit it to Pat Cummins at mid-on and took off. Virat Kohli was unmoved at the other end.

Cummins threw it in and Carey took the bails.

Both men ended up at the same end and it appears Jaiswal tried to indicate it was his call.

"Disaster for India, ecstasy for Australia. That's terrible from an Indian point of view, Jaiswal can't believe it," Adam Gilchrist said on Fox Cricket.

"This is a shocker," Michael Vaughan added.

We have a review!

Lachlan Harper

Mitch Marsh traps Jaiswal on the pads and there's a big shout.

Pat Cummins decides, YES, he will review!

It's hit just above the knee roll. Height the only problem.

Ball tracking ... says it's hitting outside leg!

Review gone.

Australia loses a review.  Fox Cricket

Jaiswal goes bang!

Lachlan Harper

Mitch Marsh has been smashed!

Right in the slot and Jaiswal whacked it to long on for six.

Change in bowling

Lachlan Harper

Mitch Marsh is back bowling!

He'll bowl his first over now for the Test.

Aussies chasing wicket

Lachlan Harper

India have certainly wrestled back momentum on a flat deck.

Kohli and Jaiswal both leaving extremely well.

India are 2-126 with just under an hour to go in the day.

"Good signs from these two," Isa Guha said on Fox Cricket.
