Screengrab from the video

The video shows India pacer Mohammed Shami swinging in a delivery to completely beat Australia’s star batter Labuschagne and shatter his stumps on the first day of the World Test Championship final being played at the Oval in England.

India skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bowl first on Wednesday.  India has gone in for four pace bowlers considering the wicket. Mohammed Siraj dismissed Usman Khawaja to give India a really good start before David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne stitched 69 runs for the second wicket for Australia.
