Jarvo also had to deal with legal issues due to suspicion of assault during the India-England series. This happened after he donned the India jersey and bowled a ball, then collided with English batter Jonny Bairstow.

Talking about the present match between India and Australia, the latter won the toss and opted to bat first. The Aussies have lost two wickets for 77 runs in 19 overs.
