On the third day of the first session, a ton by skipper Steve Smith propelled Australia forward in its Test match against India. At a loss of seven wickets, Australia crossed the 250 mark with Starc and O'Keefe at the crease.
An inexplicable batting collapse had left India staring down the barrel as left-arm spinner Steeve O'Keefe's career-best six-wicket haul gave Australia a firm grip on the first cricket Test.
The home team lost 7 wickets in a space of 11 runs to be bowled out for a pathetic 105, handing the momentum to the Australians, who had themselves folded for an underwhelming 260.
