As an action, the Indian broadcaster has removed his commentary for the ongoing Test match between Australia and India at Sydney. Perhaps, the broadcaster wants to show their spectators that they won’t encourage such poor stuff.

Earlier, the former Australian cricketer-turned-Broadcaster Keery O’Keeffe ridiculed the scores of Mayank Agarwal in first-class cricket. He called that Mayank Agarwal’s triple hundred might have come against the waiters and the canteen people.

Well, coming to the game, India won the toss at Sydney to ask Australians to take the bowling. KL Rahul, who replaced Rohit Sharma in the side, yet again failed to show his class on the middle. He once again handed his wicket to Josh Hazlewood.

Meanwhile, Mayank Agarwal and Cheteshwar Pujara showed their fantastic skills to put Australians chasing the leather more often than not. Mayank, once again missed out on a hundred while Pujara scored his 18th Test century.
