Melbourne, Dec 26 (PTI) Jasprit Bumrah removed Usman Khawaja in a rather sedate second sensation as Australia reached 176 for 2 at tea on day one of the Boxing Day Test against India here on Thursday.

In stark contrast to the frantic first session, Australian batters soaked up deliveries, adding 64 runs to their total in the second session.
