Sam Konstas's debut innings in the Boxing Day Test against India at the MCG drew comparisons to Andrew Symonds's iconic performance in 2006. Former Australian opener Matthew Hayden lauded 19-year-old Konstas, whose aggressive 60 off 65 balls helped Australia establish a strong total. India's innings stumbled early, leaving them at 156/5 by Day 2's end, trailing by 310 runs.
