India’s Lowest Test Scores Against Australia: India bundled out for 150

India’s ongoing Test series against Australia has brought back memories of some of their lowest moments on Australian soil. In the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 1st test match, India faced a dramatic collapse, and were bowled out at 150. But this isn’t the first time India has faced such struggles in Australia.

India elected to bat first in Perth. The pitch provided significant movement, and Australia’s seamers exploited it brilliantly. Hazlewood claimed four wickets, supported by two each from the rest of the bowlers. India struggled to settle, with only Rishabh Pant’s aggressive shots after lunch and debutant Nitish Reddy’s promising knock offering any resistance. Together, they added 48 runs for the seventh wicket. The conditions are expected to remain favorable for seamers when India bowl next.

The Infamous 36 All-Out is India’s lowest-ever score came in December 2020 during the first Test at Adelaide. India was bowled out for a shocking 36 runs in their second innings, unable to combat Pat Cummins and Josh Hazlewood’s fiery spells. This humiliating defeat was a major blow, but India’s resilience shone through as they came back to win the series 2-1.

Other Notable Collapses:

58 All-Out (Brisbane, 1947): In India’s first-ever Test series after independence, they were bundled out for just 58 in the second innings, facing Australia’s fast bowlers in their early years in Test cricket.
67 All-Out (Melbourne, 1948): Under the captaincy of Lala Amarnath, India was humbled by Australia’s invincible team, including the legendary Don Bradman. India managed just 67 runs in one of their heaviest defeats.

These incidents of collapse aren’t just reminders of tough times but serve as the perfect example of India’s tenacity to bounce back and compete on the world stage.

As India faces off against Australia in the Perth Test, fans can look back at these historic moments, knowing that despite these setbacks, India has always come back stronger.
