Jadeja, Saha take India past 250
March 27, 2017  09:46


India 254-6 (94 ovs) vs Aus 300 | Scorecard


Pat Cummins to start off proceedings on Day 3 and facing him is Ravindra Jadeja. The first ball is right on the mark, full and moving away, as Jadeja looks to drive but is beaten as Australians appeal for caught behind. Umpire Ian Gould rules it out but Jadeja straightaway takes the DRS which shows that the ball missed the edge.

Two balls later, there is a confident leg before wicket appeal against the left-hander but the ball pitched outside leg stump. He goes after the next ball but is beaten by one which slants across him before he gets an inside edge off the fifth ball, the first time he gets some bat on the ball as he somehow keeps out a good testing over.

Pace from both ends to begin the day. Saha drives Hazlewood's second ball through the off-side for two runs to bring up India's 250, in the 93rd over.

Jadeja struggled in the first over of the day but he drives the first ball of Cummins's next over straight back past the pace bowler for a boundary. Cummins pulls his length back a bit, not allowing the batsman to play the drive as Jadeja sees off the rest of the over.
