IND vs AUS, 3rd Test LIVE: Australia Win By 9 Wickets To Make It 1-2 In Border-Gavaskar Trophy
IND vs AUS, 3rd Test: India were completely outplayed by Australia in this fixture.
Plenty of tough Questions are being asked by the Indian spin bowling duo of R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, especially the off-spinner. After 9 overs, Australia are- 13/1.
Ashwin strikes in the first over. Usman Khawaja is OUT, CAUGHT BEHIND! For some bizarre reason the Australian has opted to review that but replays showed that there was a clear spike as the ball went past the bat.

Background
Hello and welcome to ABP's live coverage of the 3rd Test between Indian and Australia. Australia dominated a complete day's of play when they took on India on Day 1 of the third Test match at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. And unsurprisingly, it was their spinners who helped them achieve that. Matthew Kuhnemann's maiden five-wicket haul coupled with Nathan Lyon's 3 for 25 and Todd Murphy's 1 for 23 allowed the Kangaroos to bowl India out for 109 after they were asked to field first.
Leading 2-0 in a four-match series, India are sitting pretty and just need to make one tough decision of choosing between out-of-form K L Rahul and Shubman Gill. Rahul is no more the vice-captain of the side but the team management has shown tremendous faith in him and he might well get another opportunity to get back among the runs. Contrary to Australia's inexplicable sweeping tactics, Indian batters have adopted the conventional approach against the impressive Australian spinners. The square at the Holkar Stadium houses pitches with both black and red soil. The curators have decided to go with the black soil, which usually doesn’t offer as much turn and bounce compared to red soil tracks.
Their battered and bruised opponents, Australia, have got a lot of time to reflect on their defeats in Nagpur and Delhi. The debacle in Delhi, where they effectively lost the game in session, should hurt more.
Squads:
Australia: Scott Boland, Alex Carey, Cameron Green, Peter Handscomb, Travis Head, Usman Khawaja, Matt Kuhnemann, Marnus Labuschagne, Nathan Lyon, Lance Morris, Todd Murphy, Matthew Renshaw, Steve Smith (captain), Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Swepson.
India: Rohit Sharma (c), KL Rahul (vc), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KS Bharat, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Suryakumar Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat.
