CRR: 4.53. Batting, R(B), 4s, 6s, SR. Virat Kohli*, 0(1), 0, 0, 0. Cheteshwar Pujara, 1(3), 0, 0, 33.33. Bowling, O, M, R, W. Matthew Kuhnemann*, 1.3, 0, 1 ...

24.2 Lyon to Srikar Bharat, no run, fuller and just outside off , Bharat looks to block and gets beaten on the inside edge. 24.6 Lyon to Ashwin, no run, offbreak on the stumps, Ashwin goes on the back foot and looks to block. Bharat was on the front foot trying to push it straight with bat close to pad, but was undone by the lovely drift and pace on the delivery. Lyon bowled it in that in-between length and got the ball to spin enough to beat the inside edge. 25.3 Starc to Ashwin, no run, another bumper and Ashwin perhaps knew what was coming. There were a couple of rash shots but majority of the wickets were due to some consistent bowling, hitting the right lengths and targetting the stumps.

It’s wide and over-pitched and the India skipper pounces to crash a cut shot to the boundary. After their crazy capitulation in Delhi, Australia has been pilloried in the press and piled-on by a legion of Test greats who deplored their T20 ‘hit out until you get out’ approach and lemming-like devotion to the sweep shot. “I’m happy with where it’s at and I’ve built up enough of a pain threshold to deal with that stuff over the past 10 or 12 years.” And in worse news for the Australians, replays of a later Starc delivery that ducked between bat and pad show it didn’t catch the edge… Or does he want to take the pace off the ball and slow this torrent of runs to a trickle. Either way he’s back for a third over and Rohit Sharma gives him fresh cause for complaint, casually stepping out to lift Starc’s third ball over long-off to the boundary. The fourth ball stays low and goes under the bat. and too fast for the back up fielder who nutmegs it and has to watch it roll to the boundary. Or perhaps he was making a complaint to the match referee about the standard of umpiring? Pujara made a mess of that, played all over it and when it spun back sharply, it squared him up and went straight through to skittle the stumps. Carey whips off the bails and the Indian skipper is out stumped. 8th over: India 35-2 (Pujara 1, Kohli 1) Matt Kuhnemann to Virat Kohli and the young spinner makes the master batter look a tad foolish!

India vs Australia, 3rd Test: Will the tide turn at Indore? (Times of India)

Cricket News: A new-look Australia are hoping to "slow things down" and "apply themselves enough", in the words of captain Steve Smith, in order to put ...

We want to keep it interesting for you guys." That means more pressure on Smith and Labuschagne to bat long. Hopefully we can rectify that here," Smith said. Because we had them where we wanted them, and we just rushed. Australia, then, must shed the sense of fatalism and adapt, something Smith has already sensed. That doesn't give us any guarantees that we are going to roll them over in one session." We cannot take it for granted.

Because when you are playing on pitches like these, it takes one ball to grip a little more than you expect, or just one ball to keep a little low, and you're out. Amid all the doom and gloom and self-recrimination which has followed Australia's dramatic collapse on the third morning of the Delhi Test, it is wise to recall that India were 139/7 in the first innings at the Kotla after Australia had made 263. Starc is a straight swap for Cummins while Green will likely replace Matt Renshaw. The hosts, who have again prepared a "dry pitch" which Smith felt could be amenable to some serious turn, are hoping to play with fire one more time and not get burned.

Must say I wasn’t enamoured at all with Australia’s DRS use in the second Test and more of the same so far. Big appeal from the Aussies and there’s a suspicious noise via the on-field microphones. Very first ball, Mitchell Starc with the rock and beating the outside edge of Rohit. Rohit comes down the wicket and is beaten with flight and turn away from the bat, Alex Carey with a simple stumping. Replays of that LBW shout against Rohit have just rolled in too, and the Indian skipper is leading a charmed life. Kuhnemann operating with two slips and he’s on the boil with serious turn on day one.

The areas on either side of the stumps were kept slightly dry, and the line of the stumps was watered and rolled. Smith’s men must be ready for whatever hostilities India might dish out in front of a likely sold-out Holkar Stadium on the first day.-Ayan Acharya Rohit and Shubman Gill batted together in the nets on Tuesday after Gill and KL Rahul had spent significant time batting side by side just a day prior. The first change in the bowling as Smith gives the ball to spinner Matthew Kuhnemann and he strikes in the first over. It’s dry from around a six-meter length to the crease at either end. Delhi was a tough place to employ the sweep. But Australia’s barebones batting and India’s unparalleled home dominance — India has lost only 2 out of 43 Test matches at home in the last 10 years — have rendered it a one-sided fight. A cracking shot over covers to register for the second four on the innings. This is a very overcooked wicket, it is dry and has started to crumble. However, it is a big miss as the replay shows a clear spike as the ball gets a nick, but lucky Rohit survives. Both Rohit and Gill are now dealing with boundaries at the moment with few hit-and-miss in between. He takes the second wicket and sends the other opener back in just two overs.

LIVE: 'Disgusting' pitch wreaks havoc as India lose SIX in opening session chaos.

The Indian superstar called for a desperate review before walking back to the sheds. Later in the same over, Starc swung a delivery back into Sharma’s pads, with the Australians appealing for LBW. Thankfully it was third time lucky for the Australians — spinner Matthew Kuhnemann was introduced in the sixth over and immediately had an impact, removing Sharma for 12. Nathan Lyon’s introduction brought about another breakthrough, albeit in farcical scenes — the Australian off-spinner got a delivery to keep low and turn sideways, bowling Chesteshwar Pujara for 1. Lyon thought he had another scalp after trapping Ravindra Jadeja on the pads for 4, but a review showed there was a thin inside edge. India will be aware that someone like Smith somewhere down the line in this series will come good.” His concentration levels seem far higher, and you just have to look at his batting average as captain. There hasn’t been too many times in my career where I’ve actually come off and just been bedazzled by what I’ve done. “It is outstanding. I’m looking forward to it.” Umpire Nitin Menon shook his head, and Australia elected not to call for a review — but replays showed a small spike on Ultraedge. India had lost 5-18 in about half an hour.

Down the leg side, Ashwin swishes the bat at it and misses, Carey takes it down low. But it's a bit purpley... Big turn outside off though. BIG APPEAL!

Ravindra Jadeja continues his top-form since the comeback as he picked four wickets in his spell on first day. India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was promoted to bat up the order. He was adjudged leg-before wicket but reviewed the decision to survive a close call against Lyon but played a loose shot to gift his wicket on the very next ball. The spinner was on song, bowling beautifully on a pitch that offered turn and bounce. India was off to a quick start with the openers finding boundaries regularly, racing to 26/0 at the end of five overs. Australian spin attack dominated the day’s play as hosts fell prey to the plans.

Ravichandran Ashwin, perhaps eager to stamp himself on the game, was a touch too quick through the air and did not attack the stumps often enough, ending the day with 16 wicketless overs. Very rarely does this Indian team get in wrong in multiple aspects of the game on a single day. Kohli got to 22, off 52 balls, when he made his first mistake, looking to work the ball to leg against the off spin of Todd Murphy. A classic had been taken as the base and overthought to the extent that the result was unpalatable. "Maybe because of the moisture, the ball turned sharply in the morning. By now the ball was breaking sharply and keeping low often enough for Cheteshwar

India vs Australia: Are 3-day finishes, dust-bowls good for Test cricket? (The Federal)

No one in their right mind will, or should, expect a green top when India hosts Australia or England, but dust-bowls that make heroes out of journeymen ...

The charm of Test cricket lies in its ability to attract spectators and to retain their interest. What of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, who played second fiddle to spinners in the day-night, pink-ball Test in Bengaluru against Sri Lanka last March? “Test cricket is at its best when the balance between bat and ball is pretty even and it is slightly in favour of the ball. The art of batting time has largely disappeared from the game, and teams don’t think twice about getting stuck into the bowling even when they keep losing wickets, a direct imitation of the 20-over approach. At a time when the longest form of the sport is under tangible threat from its ultra-abridged white-ball siblings, New Zealand’s one-run conquest of England in a day-five finish couldn’t have been more opportune. As recently as on Tuesday (February 28), New Zealand and England played out a Test match for the ages at the Basin Reserve in Wellington.
