A technical glitch during Day 1 of the Adelaide Test between India and Australia turned a tense moment for the visitors into a comical show. Mohammed Siraj’s delivery was recorded at an incredible 181.6 kmph, which is well beyond the speed limit. The speed gun’s malfunction caused social media to go crazy, with users making fun of the ridiculous statistic and bringing back the well-known “DSP Siraj” memes. The incident gave a light-hearted moment among the intensity of the contest, providing a respite from the cricketing action.

However, the day’s drama was not limited to the speed gun incident. Australia’s Marnus Labuschagne was distracted by a beer snake made by a fan near the sight screen. Labuschagne and Siraj had a heated discussion and stopped for a moment as a result, adding to the drama. On the field, India’s batting performance fell short, with the visitors being bowled out for just 180 runs. Some resistance from Nitish Kumar Reddy gave India a hope. However, Australia’s bowlers, particularly Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, were in formidable form, dominating the Indian batsmen.
