It was surely not a desirable start for India but still, India managed to put up a decent score with Pujara scoring a century. We know it's difficult to follow a 5-day Test in Australia and also we are sure that you must've missed these 6 things even if you have watched the entire show of Day 1.
Usman Khawaja pulled off a Ricky Ponting as he took a brilliant one-handed catch to send Virat Kohli back to the pavilion. Virat Kohli could just score 3 runs before he handed the catch to Khawaja at gully.
Pujara had some problem in his eyes and it was Rahane on the non-striker's end who asked him about the issue. And what Pujara said was only understandable to Ajinkya Rahane.
It was a good attempt by Marcus Harris who tried to save 6 runs for his team, but he just missed it by milliseconds. Even after getting a signal from TV Umpire and having a look on mega-screen, the umpire took a while to give his decision.
Mitchell Starc bowled two lethal deliveries to Rishabh Pant for which the youngster had nothing to reply. Starc gave a quirky smile and there was some exchange of words between the two.
"Best Wishes", signed by Rahul Dravid on the back of Rahane's bat

Ajinkya Rahane as playing with a bat on which Rahul Dravid had given his autograph. But this blessing from a legend also didn't work for Rahane as he threw his wicket quite early in the innings. Rahul Dravid must be very disappointed with Rahane after his dismissal.
When 4 top-order players gave their wickets cheaply, he stood there firmly and scored a century to reach a milestone of 5000 runs!! But, just when Pujara started celebrating he got distracted by the fielder who was throwing a ball towards the wicket-keeper.
