India vs Australia, 1st Test Day 3, Live Score Updates: Onus On Axar Patel To Extend India’s Lead After Ravindra Jadeja’s Departure | Cricket News

IND vs AUS Live: SIX!

SIX! This is what Mohammed Shami can do. He can hit these shots with ease. It was in the slot from Todd Murphy and Shami heaved it into the stands for a six over deep mid-wicket.

IND 348/8 (125)

IND vs AUS Live: Catch dropped!

Scott Boland has dropped Mohammed Shami’s catch at long-on. Shami hit a Nathan Lyon delivery high in the air and it could have been a regular catch for Boland, but he made a mess of it. Poor Australia!

IND vs AUS Live: FOUR!

That’s a good shot from Mohammed Shami for a four. He got on the backfoot and cut the ball away for the boundary. These runs will definitely hurt Australia as they aim to clean up the Indian tail as early as possible.

IND 335/8 (119.3)

IND vs AUS Live: WICKET!

Error in judgement from Ravindra Jadeja and he will have to depart at the score of 70. Off-spinner Todd Murphy bowled made the ball turn to the other side and Jadeja left it. The ball hit his stumps, handing the Aussie debutant his sixth wicket. India 328/8 in 118.2 overs vs Australia

IND vs AUS LIVE: Good turn for spinners!

Nathan Lyon got some really good turn in his first over. He beat Axar Patel’s outside edge for more than a couple of times. So, Pat Cummins has decided to not continue and hand the ball to Todd Murphy to bowl from his end. 

IND 324/7 (116)

IND vs AUS LIVE: Day 3 play starts!

The play on Day has kicked off with Pat Cummins bowling the first over. Ravindra Jadeja is on the strike, Axar Patel is at the other end.

IND vs AUS LIVE: Australia need an early breakthrough!

The pair of Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel have added 81 runs for the eighth wicket so far. They are unbeaten on their respective scores of 66 and 52. Australia need an early breakthrough to bounce back in the game, or the Indian duo will take the match further away from the guests. We are only 5 minutes away from Day 3 play.
