    Australia have a vice-like grip on the second cricket test against India - after a strong day two effort in the day-night clash in Adelaide

    Australia have a vice-like grip on the second cricket test against India - after a strong day two effort in the day-night clash in Adelaide


    India were 128 for 5 in their second innings at stumps - still trailing by 29 runs.

    That was after Travis Head belted 140 off 141 balls to help the hosts post 337 and take a first innings buffer of 157.

    Capatin Pat Cummins and fellow seamer Scott Boland have two wickets each in the visitors second innings.
