Murphy bagged a brilliant fifer in the 1st innings of his debut match and with this he achieved a rare feat for Australia which came after 15-long-years.

Murphy snared big scalps as he dismissed KL Rahul, R Ashwin, Pujara, Kohli and Bharat during his five-wicket haul.

Nathan Lyon also took 5/34 on his debut Test match 2011 but that didn't came against India but Sri Lanka.
