  "account": "In the inaugural Test match in Darwin, Australia's Pat Cummins elected to bat first. Weatherald's early deliveries were a mix of misses and successful drives. He edged Hasan Mahmud to midwicket for a single, and later clipped Hasan to long off for a boundary. Head started the over with singles, while Weatherald struggled with his shots. A few balls later, Weatherald was caught behind the stumps for a boundary, and another time, he was dismissed for a single by Head. The match saw a variety of deliveries, with both players displaying their skills behind the stumps.",
