"Leave Your...": Sunil Gavaskar's Dead Straight Advice To Shubman Gill After Flop Show

The Indian cricket team is having a tough time in their Tour of Australia. After winning the first match in Perth, India lost the second match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy in Adelaide in less than three days. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team is having a tough time in the third Test in Brisbane too. After Australia scored 445 in the first innings, India struggled and were reduced to 44/4 at one stage. Yashasvi Jaiswal (4), Shubman Gill (1), Virat Kohli (3), and Rishabh Pant (9) failed and former India captain Sunil Gavaskar was not impressed.

It seemed that Yashasvi Jaiswal had devised a plan to counter Mitchell Starc's new ball threat. However, just two balls into India's first innings of the ongoing third Test against Australia, Starc had Jaiswal caught at forward square leg. After India bowled Australia out for 445 early in the morning session on Day 3, Jaiswal was taking throw-downs before the start of India's innings. He flicked one towards the Australian team's huddle, but the ball hit the leg of Cricket Australia's cameraman.

"Facing 445 Runs...": Sunil Gavaskar's 'Very Disappointing' Verdict On Yashasvi Jaiswal's Brisbane Show

Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar was deeply disappointed over how Yashasvi Jaiswal fell to Mitchell Starc on day three of the third Test at the Gabba, saying it was just not the best of shots one would expect from an opener. After Australia's first innings ended at 445, a lot was expected from Jaiswal and KL Rahul to give India a great start. But Jaiswal clipped straight to Mitchell Marsh at square leg to depart for just four on the second ball of the innings. "It's not the best of shots. You are facing 445 runs, then I think it's important for you to get your eye in. It wasn't even a half volley, and you have tried to flick that ball away, and it's a simple catch. Very good field placement and very good captaincy by Pat Cummins for sure.

Rohit Sharma Loses Cool At India Star, Rant Goes Viral: "Sar Mein Kuch Hai?"

India captain Rohit Sharma was a frustrated figure on Day 3 of the 3rd Test against Australia in Brisbane on Monday. With Australia frustrating India at the start of play, Rohit was seemingly not happy with pacer Akash Deep after he bowled a bizarre delivery. In the 114th over of Australia's innings, Akash's delivery landed outside of the pitch with Rishabh Pant making a crucial intervention to stop the ball from going to the boundary for four byes.

3rd Test: Batters Botch Up Again; India In Trouble At 51/4 On Rain-Marred Day 3

The Indian batters' inability to grind it out against a relentless Australian pace attack in testing conditions left the team precariously placed at 51 for four at the end of a rain-marred day three of the third Test in Brisbane on Monday. On a stop-start day, India bowled out Australia for 445 in their first innings, the hosts adding 40 runs to their overnight total, as the peerless Jasprit Bumrah continued to do the heavy lifting to finish with excellent figures of 6/76.

In Blockbuster Praise, Yashasvi Jaiswal Compared To Sunil Gavaskar: "Ups And Downs..."

Former India cricketer Sanjay Bangar has hailed young batter Yashasvi Jaiswal for his temperament and caliber, and compared him to one of the all-time greats, Sunil Gavaskar. Jaiswal has enjoyed a great start to his Test career after making his debut last year during the tour of West Indies. In 16 Tests, he has smashed four centuries and eight fifties, amassing over 1500 runs already. Bangar highlighted his hunger to score big runs and the ability to stay grounded through personal hardships as the key factors behind Jaiswal's rise from rags to riches.

India are set to make two changes to their playing XI for the third Test against Australia, starting Saturday at the Gabba in Brisbane. According to a report in the Indian Express, veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin is set to lose his place in the XI, with Washington Sundar likely to replace him.

How Did Mitchell Starc React To Yashasvi Jaiswal's "Too Slow" Sledge? Ricky Ponting Says...

Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believes a cheeky remark from India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal during the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series may have given extra motivation to Mitchell Starc to deliver his career-best performance in the second Test in Adelaide. Jaiswal contributed a knock of 161 in the second innings of the series opener in Perth. During his stellar knock, he remarked that Starc was "bowling too slow". The comment brought a wry smile to the face of Starc at the time, but it was the left-arm quick that had the last laugh when he dismissed the India opener for a duck with a peach on the very first delivery of the match in Adelaide.
