"It's Baffling": Rohit Sharma's Weird Tactic For Ravichandran Ashwin Angers Ex-Cricketers
Ravichandran Ashwin has been one of the consistent performers for India on home conditions in the recent past and his impact on the side became even more evident from the fact that he dislodged James Anderson to become the top-ranked Test bowler in the world. As a result, it came as a major surprise to everyone that skipper Rohit Sharma waited around 15 overs to hand the bowl to his top spinner on Day 2 of the third Test against Australia in Indore. While the spin threat was being provided by Ravindra Jadeja, it was Ashwin who ultimately provided the first breakthrough of the day as he dismissed Peter Handscomb. Ravi Shastri, Mitchell Johnson and Ajit Agarkar were all taken aback by the choice made by Rohit and during their commentary, all of the ex-players made it a point to discuss his decision.
India vs Australia: Ravichandran Ashwin Surpasses Kapil Dev For Major Milestone
Ravichandran Ashwin returned with a three-wicket haul on Thursday to help India skittle out Australia for 197 in the third Test of the Border-Gavaskar. Ashwin's performance, in which he took the wickets of Peter Handscomb, Alex Carey and Nathan Lyon, helped the hosts limit the visitors' lead. The three wickets also meant that Ashwin now has 689 international wickets, surpassing Kapil Dev (687), to be the third-highest wicket-taker for India across formats. Anil Kumble (953) and Harbhajan Singh (707) hold the top two places.
"Doesn't Look As If They Care...": Australia Great Questions Team's Attitude Against India
The first two Tests of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy ended in less than three days, with Australia failing to justify their world No. 1 rank against India. The Rohit Sharma-led hosts dominated with the bat as well with the ball as the Australians were left with no answers. Courtesy their 2-0 lead in the four-match series, India have already retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. If India win the third Test, they will seal a place in the final of the World Test Championship. In the midst of this, Australia would hope for a turnaround in the contest. However, former Australia pacer Mitchell Johnson wrote in a column that the 'most disappointing' aspect of the team was the way it lost the first two Tests.
"Don't Need Three Spinners: Ex-Australia Star Ahead Of 3rd Test vs India
Former Australian pacer Michael Kasprowicz wants his side to play to its strengths and go for a three-pronged pace attack in Mitchell Starc, Cameron Green and Scott Boland for the third Test against India at Indore beginning on Wednesday. Australia had gone into the second Test in New Delhi with just one pacer in skipper Pat Cummins and three specialist spinners and still lost the match by six wickets to concede a series-retaining 0-2 lead to India.
Mitchell Starc Says Still Not 100 Per Cent Fit But Good Enough For Third Test
Senior Australian pacer Mitchell Starc has still not '100 per cent' recovered from his injury but is ready to make an impact in the third Test against India beginning in Indore on Wednesday. With skipper Pat Cummins back home to be with his unwell mother, Australia will rely on Starc to provide the odd breakthrough and support the spinners. Indian pacers have already made a substantial contribution in the series with Mohammed Shami being the standout fast bowler.

India vs Australia: Mitchell Marsh To Play Only As Batter In ODI Series
Returning to competitive cricket after a three-month gap, Glenn Maxwell is struggling to get that "mental application" back and is leaving no stone unturned in "building match intensity" to be ready for the crucial ODI series against India, which will also host the World Cup later this year. All-rounders Maxwell, Mitchell Marsh and paceman Jhye Richardson on Thursday returned to Australia's 16-member ODI squad after a long injury lay-off. While Maxwell and Marsh underwent surgeries for broken leg and ankle injury respectively, Richardson was out of the team due to a soft tissue problem.
