Yashasvi Jaiswal Falls to Starc on First Ball in Pink Ball Test

In a dramatic start to the second Test at Adelaide Oval, Australian pace ace Mitchell Starc dismissed young Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal on the very first ball. The golden duck, a stark contrast to Jaiswal’s 177 in Perth, has sparked a wave of reactions online. Fans called it Starc’s “perfect revenge” for past sledging.

India’s Rocky Start in Adelaide

The pink ball Test, much anticipated, began with Indian skipper Rohit Sharma winning the toss. He chose to bat first. India’s innings started disastrously. Jaiswal was out on the first ball. Starc, bowling round the wicket, delivered a full-length ball that swung in late. The 22-year-old opener missed his flick. Ball-tracking replays showed three reds, leaving no room for review.

Fans React to Starc’s Perfect Reply

Jaiswal’s dismissal caught the attention of cricket fans on ‘X’ (formerly Twitter). Many fans noted a sledging exchange during the Perth Test. Jaiswal, fresh off a century, teased Starc for “bowling slow.” Starc’s first-ball, fiery dismissal seemed a fitting response. Fans quickly roasted Jaiswal for it.
