The first day of the final Test at Sydney Cricket Ground saw high drama with a confrontation between Indian skipper Jasprit Bumrah and Sam Konstas, following Usman Khawaja's delayed shot. Bumrah dismissed Khawaja right after, making his point clear. Australia ended at 9 for 1, trailing by 176 runs. India, who had recovered from 57/3 to 107/4 at tea, suffered a dramatic collapse in the final session, losing their last six wickets for just 78 runs.
