Updated World Test Championship Points Table After Australia Beat India In Pink-Ball Test
After a harrowing defeat in the Perth Test, Australia bounced back to maintain their 100 percent record in pink-ball Tests at the Adelaide Oval, beating India by 10 wickets. India put in a disappointing display, especially with the bat, scoring just 180 and 175 in the two innings of the day-night Test. Nitish Kumar Reddy and Rishabh Pant were the only two batters to put in some sort of a fight while veterans like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, etc. failed to inspire. Even experienced spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, brought into the team in place of Washington Sundar, had a disappointing outing.

Tussled, altercations and confrontations are all part of the game but as Mohammed Siraj dismissed Travis Head on Day 2 of the pink-ball Test against Australia in Adelaide, a few lines were crossed. The Australia batter admitted that his face-off with Siraj went a little overboard on Saturday while also claiming that he praised the India pacer's bowling, though jokingly. However, Siraj later countered Head's claims, suggesting the Adelaide Test centurion didn't say "well bowled" and lied about the incident in the press conference after the second day's play. However, it was nice to see the two burying the hatchet during the third day's play which concluded with a hug being exchanged between them.
