🏏Australia vs India, 1st Test: Perth Stadium, Day 4, Nov 22-Nov 26.🏏 - Page 62

Eye of Sauron : "As it stands, in his last three tests vs India in Australia including this one at Perth, Lyon has taken 5 wickets at an average of 80 with a bowling strike rate of over 190 . "

Danish: "Looks a foregone conclusion now but do Aussies have a Cook & a Trott to bat out 2 days ?? " I was thinking of how this was similar to Gabba 2010. Of course, India playing for the win and not a draw is a big difference

India 2nd Innings

83.1 Starc to Padikkal, FOUR runs

Width offered and that's slapped through point. Proper crunch. Big wind-up from Padikkal as he stayed in the crease and made contact when the ball was next to his back thigh.

Wow! India made more than 100 runs in the first session of Day 3 for a loss of one wicket.

Day 3: Lunch Break - India lead by 321 runs

Lunch, Day 3 - 103/1 in that session and India are still bossing this game. The Aussies bowlers have had a long, tough toil. They hoped to push India back but the visiting batters brought their tough mindsets out today as well and cashed in on pretty good batting conditions. Jaiswal completed his fourth Test hundred and soaked in every bit of the moment. To get a hundred in your first game in Australia is special and to get it under a bit of pressure is even more special and you could understand him taking a while to relish that century. But he's back gusting it out again and he is known to make it big when he gets in. KL Rahul applied himself so well again

Saifi : "is it Perth pitch or pindi?" Wonder what the fans think of this. Sorry, had to do it

ChrisH: "It's extraordinary how effortlessly Jaiswal and Padikkal have built this partnership. Very worrying for the Aussies."
