That's all from us in the blog for today!

We'll catch you back here tomorrow for day two at the SCG.

Uzzy sent packing from final ball

Khawaja is taking his sweet time to face up against Bumrah and it's enraged the visitors.

Konstas gets involved and has a few words, which only fires them up a little bit more.

All this has done is wind down the clock for the Aussies - but it's not enough as Bumrah snicks off Khawaja from the final ball and Rahul catches it in the slips.

"It's game on now, they are fired up," Ravi Shastri said on Fox Cricket.

Run-out avoided

Bit of a mix-up between Konstas and Khawaja, but the young gun gets home safely.

Konstas sets the tone

First ball of the innings and Konstas charges at Bumrah, flicking him over mid-wicket for a boundary and showing a clear intent.

"Of course he does," Isa Guha said on Fox Cricket.

Khawaja cops a nasty knock to the hand and receives some medical attention.

After a lengthy delay, the left-hander is cleared to continue.

Nervous 16 minutes coming up

Liam O'Loughlin

It will be a tricky period for both Konstas and Khawaja at the crease.

India will have four or five overs to bowl at the hosts and try take a wicket into stumps.

With just 185 on the board, this is a crucial 16 minutes coming up for India.

ALL OUT

Lachlan Harper

It was entertaining but Jasprit Bumrah is gone.

He hit Pat Cummins' first ball for six then hit the next to Mitchell Starc at mid wicket.

Bumrah goes for a very valuable 22.

Cummins finishes with 2-37 and India are all out for 185.

Another dropped catch ... but it was tough

Lachlan Harper

Mitchell Starc bounces Mohammed Siraj and it goes high behind the keeper's head.

Marnus Labuschagne runs hard towards the ball from third man but can only get his fingertips to it.

Starc wasn't too happy with his fielder's urgency though.

The barrage continues

Lachlan Harper

Mohammed Siraj has been struck now.

The ban first hit him on the hand then the arm and rose to the bottom of his chin.

He's being assessed now by medical staff.

One more wicket to go

Lachlan Harper

Prasidh Krishna goes out swinging.

Pat Cummins spread the field and it worked with Sam Konstas taking a catch at deep square leg.

Prasidh leaves for three. That's his first three runs in Test cricket.

Starc has three wickets now.

The skipper goes bang

Lachlan Harper

Well Jasprit Bumrah is here for a good time.

Ball four and five of Scott Boland's over he smacked over his head for four.

Then Boland aims it at his hip and it goes for four byes.
