Australia vs India Match Stats

An appeal for LBW from Sundar but the umpire is not interested on this one! Sundar bowls a flatter one, on a fuller length which hurries off the deck and goes straight on. Alex Carey leans ahead to defend it but gets a faint inside edge onto the pads before lobbing just ahead of the first slip.

Dragged length ball around middle and leg, Carey sits down on one knee, and sweeps it down to the deep backward square leg fence for three more runs.

Slows it up, full and outside off, turning away. Starc goes for a drive and gets beaten.

OUT! TAKEN! What a sharp catch by Dhruv Jurel at short leg! Washington Sundar stays around the stumps and slows down the pace, giving some flight on it. Keeps the line of attack on the stumps and the length is full. Mitchell Starc prods forward and brings his bat ahead of the pads to clip it away. But he is a bit early into the shot and ends up lobbing it towards the right of short leg where Jurel shows quick reflexes. He stays in his squatting position but stretches his right hand out, almost thrusting it over his head, and plucks it out of thin air. Starc departs on 12 (35). Sundar gets his first wicket and Australia are 227/8 now. And that will be TEA ON DAY 4!

Tossed up, full and at the stumps, Lyon lunges and pats it back to Sundar.

OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! Two in the over for Sundar, either side of the Tea break! Sundar serves it on a nagging length, on the off-stump line, Lyon gets himself on the front foot and plays for the turn but there is no turn on offer.  This goes straight on and zips past the outside edge of Lyon's vertical bat. It goes through to clatter the off pole. Sundar punches the air in delight. A duck for Lyon. India are now just a wicket away from going 1-0 up!

A confident appeal for LBW from Rana but the umpire shakes his head in denial! Rana is absolutely pleading with the umpire and turns around to have a chat with his teammates. Virat Kohli from slips asks the skipper to take the review and Jasprit Bumrah signals 'T' to send it upstairs. Coming to the ball, Harshit steams in from around the wickets and lands it on a hard length, skidding through the deck and staying a tad bit low on the bounce. Alex Carey is squared up and tries to block it in front but plays inside the line. Gets rapped on the back thigh pad. UltraEdge shows nothing but Ball Tracking confirms the ball passing just over the stumps. NOT OUT!

A sharp bouncer on offer, angling right onto the body, Josh Hazlewood has no time to sway away from the line, he takes his eyes off the ball and takes the blow right on the helmet.

OUT! BOWLED 'EM! INDIA WIN A FAMOUS TEST IN PERTH! A victory which will be remembered for a long, long time! Harshit Rana stays around the stumps and serves the slower ball at 109.9 kph that lands on a fuller length at off, Alex Carey is stuck inside the crease and goes through to push it to the off-side, anticipating the ball to come quicker at him. He ends up playing inside the line and goes through the shot a bit early. The ball flirts past the outside edge to clatter into the sticks. India halt Australia's unbeaten winning streak at the Optus Stadium in Perth. Also, this is the largest win for the tourists in terms of the run margin in Australia.
