Australia was bowled out for 104 at lunch after losing the final three wickets in the morning session on Day 2, giving India a comfortable 46-run lead in the first innings of Saturday's opening match. Pacer Jasprit Bumrah completed his 11th five-wicket haul in Tests.
The best bowlers for India were captain Jasprit Bumrah (5/30), Mohammed Siraj (2/20), and Harshit Rana (3/48), who made his debut.
Due primarily to tail-ender Mitchell Starc (26), who ended up being his team's top scorer, Australia was unable to add more than 37 runs to their overnight total of 67/7.
India were all out for 150 from 49.4 overs at the stroke of tea on Friday.
