#Adelaide: The match in between Australia versus India had been interrupted by rain shortly after lunch on day two of the first Test at Adelaide #Oval on Wednesday.
Showers in the morning delayed the start and brought an early lunch, and after another delay, Captain #Michael #Clarke and #Steven #Smith resumed but could only face 11 deliveries before play was suspended again.
That was enough for Smith (103 not out) to register his #fifth #Test #century though Clarke. He had come back out after retiring hurt with a back injury on Tuesday, was stranded on 98.
Clarke left the field on 60 after straining his lower back during the first day’s play, but after receiving injections and treatment, he marched out to the Adelaide Oval crease with Smith at the start of Day 2.
The pair resumed with the score at 354-6.
Australia had scored 517 on the loss of 7 wickets till the end of second day’s game.
