Yashasvi Jaiswal's Run-Out Huge In Bigger Context Of Match: Steve Smith

Yashasvi Jaiswal's run out will be huge in the broader context of the fourth Test match against India as it also affected Virat Kohli's concentration, who till then looked good for a "masterclass", said Australia's batting hero Steve Smith on Friday. Jaiswal, who was quite fluent during his 118-ball stay that yielded 82 runs on the second day, was way short of his crease after a mix-up with Virat Kohli (36) while attempting a quick single, handing Australia the breakthrough that could prove decisive.

3 Wickets For 6 Runs: How India Collapsed Against Australia After Virat Kohli-Yashasvi Jaiswal Show

India suffered a late batting collapse after a good show from Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal on Day 2 of the fourth Test match against Australia in Melbourne on Friday. The visitors looked quite comfortable with both Jaiswal and Kohli showing excellent judgement against the Australia bowlers. Jaiswal slammed a gritty half-century while Kohli looked quite solid with India cruising at 153 for the loss of two wickets. However, with 30 minutes left for stumps, Jaiswal was dismissed run-out following a horrible mix-up. It was an unfortunate end to a solid knock and it opened the floodgates for the hosts.

There's Difference Between Being Out Of Runs And Out Of Form: Steve Smith

Australian batting mainstay Steve Smith always knew that he was "out of runs" but never "out of form" as he got back-to-back Test hundreds against India within a week of each other after 18 months of lull. Having scored his 33rd ton in Brisbane, Smith equalled Sunil Gavaskar's then world record of 34 hundreds on the second day of the fourth Test at the MCG on Friday. Asked how did he chug along all these days when big runs were not coming that easily, Smith dived deep into his inner core.

Deepti Sharma Stars With All-Round Show As India Whitewash West Indies 3-0

Senior off-spinner Deepti Sharma did the star turn with career-best figures of 6/31 before doing her bit with the bat as India completed a 3-0 whitewash of the West Indies with a five-wicket victory in the final Women's ODI in Vadodara on Friday. Having bowled out West Indies for 162 after Deepti's superlative performance and pacer Renuka Singh's (4/29) excellent show with the new ball, India recovered after a top-order wobble to reach the target of 163 in 28.2 overs.

Steve Smith Becomes Victim To 'Most Bizarre Dismissal Of 2024', His Reaction Says It All

Steve Smith's fifth Boxing Day Test century lifted Australia to 474 in the first innings of their 4th Test against India at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Friday. Smith (140) crunched his second century in as many Tests as Australia built a daunting total, with the hosts having resumed on 311-6 after a dominant opening day where all their top four blasted 50 or more to lay a solid platform. However, Smith got out in a rather bizarre manner, falling 10 runs short of a landmark 150.

Sunil Gavaskar Wants India To Drop Out-Of-Form Star, Says "Be Brutally..."

Legendary batter Sunil Gavaskar shared a brutally honest review of the underperforming pacer Mohammed Siraj and called for the left-arm pacer to be dropped from the Indian side after a string of poor outings in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy series. Siraj, who was a vital cog in the 2021 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series win, has not been up to the mark in the ongoing series, having taken 13 wickets in seven innings and not being fierce enough with the new ball, causing extra burden on Jasprit Bumrah's shoulders.
