2nd test match India vs Australia, Australia is 133 for six Cummins and green hanging on and irritating India. India has to wrap up the tell quickly to win the second test match on 4th day.
The Big Question is will India wrap the tell with the new ball on the 4th day or horror of tail giving pain will continue in this series. Anything over 100 will not be easy; it will add on psychological pressure on team India. On day three, Australia lead by two the second test match India vs Australia test series 2020-21.
Ajinkya Rahane and Jadeja’s amazing partnership helped India get the lead of 131runs. Today on 3rd-day Ajinkya Rahane was run out after playing a great captain knock of 112runs. We also show a great moment in the match. Rahane is a team man, and it was shown on the 3rd day, beautiful pitch moment from Rahane for Jadeja even getting runout. He tapped Jadeja like he was saying its ok best of luck keep playing. Jadeja played a good knock of 57runs. Ashwin and Yadav contributed a bit in the end, which help India cross 300. Team India ended up with a score of 326runs.
In reply of 326runs in the second inning, Australia lost the wicket of Burns. Yadav got him with beauty. For Australia, wade held the inning before he got out LBW in the bowling of Jadeja. Their top batsman Labuschagne and Smith got out early, which raised India’s hope on 3rd day.
India’s problem is Yadav left the ground with a niggle don’t know what the issue is. India needs him on 4th day to wrap up Australia with Bumrah and other bowlers. Today on 3rd day, Mohammed Siraj bowled an impressive spell right line and trouble all the Aussie batsmen.
Smith once again came in the trap. Yes, coming in the stump and playing to legside is now becoming an issue for Smith. He is getting trapped on his leg side as his leg stumps open he depends on his risk and eyesight. We feel it is becoming a risky shot for Smith now. In two tests, India can keep champion unorthodox batsman silent, not allowing him to score big. Today on 3rd day of a second test match, Smith was bowled with beauty from Bumrah.
Awesome to see Rahane trusting Jadeja and when you boost player confident it can help them improve performance. Jadeja not only batted well but he bowls well in both innings. In the second inning also he took two crucial wickets. Ashwin too was excellent on 3rd day of a test match. Bumrah is getting good support of all bowlers, which is helping India a lot.
India needs few wickets and match will surely win the second test match. Australia will like to take the lead over 100 which is a psychological thing India may find tough in 4th inning if they don’t wrap up tail. We have to play positively batting in 4th inning to make one all in test series.
