Earlier in the day, Ravindra Jadeja returned with brilliant figures of 7/42 in 12.1 overs while his spin colleague Ravichandran Ashwin took three Australian wickets.
Ravindra Jadeja bowled a sensational spell in the morning session on Day 3 of the second Test to trigger an astonishing Australian collapse in their second innings. Jadeja returned figures of 7 for 42 as he registered his career best figures in the longest format.The 34-year-old was the wrecker-in-chief as Australia lost 9 wickets for just 52 runs in just over 90 minutes of play. Claiming his 12th Test fifer, Jadeja ran through the Aussie batting order, bagging six wickets in the session to put India on top.
Another, rather yet another, disappointing outing for KL Rahul in the Indian shirt as the opening batter continues to give critics opportunities to question his selection. The veteran batter hasn't done justice to his talent of late, giving fans and some former cricketers chance after chance to critique his performances. As Rahul came out to bat in the 2nd innings of the second Test against Australia, he could only score 1 run before being sent packing by Nathan Lyon. His dismissal led to a meme feat on Twitter.
NEW DELHI : Ravindra Jadeja claimed a career-best 7-42 and combined with Ravichandran Ashwin to bundle out Australia for 113 and put India on course for a comprehensive victory in the second test on Sunday.
After a dull outing in the Nagpur Test, Australia spinner Nathan Lyon turned his team's wrecker-in-chief again, bagging a 5-wicket haul on Day 2 of the second Test against India in New Delhi. Lyon bagged some crucial wickets on the day, dismissing the likes of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara, Shreyas Iyer, and Srikar Bharat. The dismissal of Pujara was arguably the most painful for Indians considering the talismanic batter is playing his 100th Test. When Lyon was asked about Pujara's dismissal in the post-match press conference, he gave a stern reply.
IND vs AUS, 2nd Test Day 3, Live Updates: India would hoping to make early inroads on Day 3 of the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, while Australia would be eager to extend their lead. Australia raced to 61 for one at stumps on Day 2 after Ravindra Jadeja dismissed Usman Khawaja for six after a reverse sweep flew straight to leg slip. They led India by 62 runs.
Virat Kohli looked very assured at the crease on Day 2 of the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. That was until Kohli (44 off 84 balls) was given LBW off Matthew Kuhnemann in a decision that raised eyebrows. Even Kohli was not happy and was seen fuming in the dressing room. Kohli's wicket fell when India were in a tricky spot in the first innings against Australia. Later, Ravichandran Ashwin and Axar Patel stitched a 100-plus stand to revive India's chances. After the dismissal, Kohli could be seen indulging in an intense discussion with coach Rahul Dravid when a man arrived with food. Kohli looked really happy after that.
