3rd Test: Australia Pacers Dominate India On Frustrating Rainy Day
Gavaskar Trophy Test: Monday turned out to be a frustrating day in the third Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test as rain ensured it made its presence felt by disrupting the proceedings for uncountable times. But Australia’s pacers managed to get into the wickets and leave India in deep trouble.
After stumps came on a day where only 33.1 overs of play was possible, Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood scythed through the top-order to leave India at 51/4 in 17 overs and trail Australia by 394 runs.
With KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma unbeaten on 33 and zero respectively, India need more 246 runs to avoid a follow-on, a scenario which they haven’t faced after The Oval Test in 2011. But with rain expected on days four and five, India might just save themselves from being 2-1 behind in the five-match series.
