Indore, March 1, Jankranti News,: —- India vs Australia Live Score 3rd Test: In the third Test against Australia which started today, the Indian team collapsed for 109 runs in the first innings.  In this match being held at the Holkar Stadium in Indore as part of the Border – Gavaskar Trophy, the Indian team won the toss and batted first.  With that, the Indian team was bowled out for 109 runs in just 33.2 overs.  Virat Kohli (22: 2×4 off 52 balls) was the team’s top scorer.  While Australian spinners Kuhnemann. took 5 wickets, Nathan Lyon took three wickets and Todd Murphy took one wicket.  Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss in the match and chose to bat without any second thought.  But… from the first session, the ball was seen turning in a way that no one expected.  Along with captain Rohit Sharma (12), Shubham Gill (21), Chateshwar Pujara (1), Virat Kohli (22), Ravindra Jadeja (4), Shreyas Iyer (0), KS Bharat (17), Ashwin (3),  Umesh Yadav (17) was dismissed by the spinners in a row.  Finally Akshar Patel (12 not out: 1×4 off 33 balls) stayed at the crease for a while.  But he could not play aggressively.  In the first Test at Nagpur in February, the ball turned an average of 2.5 degrees.  Similarly, in the second Test in Delhi, the average turn was 3.8 degrees.  But… on this indoor pitch, the ball seems to be turning 4 to 8 degrees.  .  That made it difficult for the Indian batsmen to block the ball from the Australian spinners.
