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.
The man who doesn't mind running out batters at the non-striker, Ravichandran Ashwin, looked to catch Australia batter Steve Smith off-guard on Day 3 of the second Test in New Delhi. Ashwin, bowling to Marnus Labuchagne, didn't release the ball during the 15th over of the second innings, leaving the non-striker Smith rattled. While no attempt to run out Smith was made, the entire incident drew an amusing reaction from the Australian batter. Even Virat Kohli, standing in the slip cordon, had a big laugh seeing what happened at the non-striker's end.
Ravichandran Ashwin, the man who made non-striker's run-out cool, again came close to doing the same in the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar series against Australia in New Delhi. With Marnus Labuschagne at the non-striker's end, Ashwin stopped short of delivering the ball in the 19th over of the innings on Day 1. While Ashwin completed his full action, he didn't deliver the ball to turn around and check the position of Labuschagne. The latter took his crease quickly after spotting Ashwin's action.
Veteran India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin on Friday achieved multiple milestones on Day 1 of the second Test against Australia. Ashwin, who crossed the landmark of 450 Test wickets in the last match, has now become only the 2nd Indian bowler to pick up 100 wickets in Tests against Australia. The 34-year-old dismissed Alex Carey (0) to achieve the feat. Former India captain Anil Kumble (111) is the only other bowler with 100 or more scalps against Australia in the longest format of the game.
KL Rahul pulled off a stunning catch to dismiss Usman Khawaja on Day 1 of the second Test encounter between India and Australia in New Delhi on Friday. Khawaja looked completely at ease after finishing his half century and it took a special effort on the field to finally end his stay. The Australia opener went for an adventurous reverse sweep, but KL Rahul pulled off a full-stretched dive to complete the one-handed catch. Khawaja was at the crease for 125 deliveries and the wicket proved crucial for India as it allowed both Ashwin and Jadeja to target the tailenders on a pitch that assisted the spinners a bit.
It was the Ravichandran Ashwin show on Day 1 of the second Test match between India and Australia in New Delhi on Friday as the veteran spinner took the wickets of Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne in the span of just three deliveries. The Aussie duo looked set at the crease but two brilliant deliveries from Ashwin brought India back into the encounter. Labuschagne was the first to depart as he was trapped LBW by a delivery that did not spin and crashed straight into his pads. Three balls later, Smith was foxed by a spinning delivery as he ended up edging the ball straight to KS Bharat behind the stumps.
