India entered the Test with the shameful experience of being eliminated in 36 races. The best cricketer and regular captain of the team was not Virat Kohli. Mohammad Shami was out with injury, while Umesh Yadav was almost unavailable in the second inning due to injury. However, Ajinkya Rahane’s leadership, extraordinary century and great skill of the bowlers, Australia found them in Melbourne.
India won the Boxing Day event by 6 wickets with a goal of just 60 runs. He had to play just 15.5 overs to make that run. The visitors also drew 1-1 in the four-game test series with this great victory.
Tuesday the fourth day was like a formality. India had set the stage to win the match the day before. Ajira took a lead of just 2 runs with the last 4 wickets in hand. With those four terrains, however, they fought a lot in the morning.
Ajira, who was down 133-of-6, lost the first wicket for 156 runs. 22-year-old Pat Cummins was picked up by Jaspreet Bumrah, who played well throughout the game. Later, the last recognized hitter, Cameron Green, led with Mitchell Starc. The inaugurated Mohammad Siraj returned to Green at age 45.
Mitchell Stark, Joss Hazelwood were able to bring the team home to Tennessee at two hundred. But that was trivial. India didn’t have much trouble with the 60-race goal.
Young starter Shubhaman Gill got off to a smooth start by chasing down an easy run. However, Mayank Agarwal couldn’t keep up with him. Starc, who scored 5 runs for 16 runs, was caught behind the wicket by the ball. As soon as Cheteshwar Pujara arrived, Cummins caught him.
2 windows for 19 races. Any danger again? There was not much fear for 2 minutes. As soon as Rahane got off, he explained with the bat-ball connection that there is no chance of something like this happening this time. The undefeated captain, who made 26 of 40 balls, took the winning run. Chasing a sprint, Gill made 35 of 36 balls and said he was ready to be her partner when Rohit Sharma returned.
Many have contributed to the stage for India to win this match. Bumrah and Rabichandran Ashwin were the pioneers in stopping Ajit’s first innings with just 195 runs. Bumrah took 4 wickets for 56 runs. Ashwin, who has dazzled the ball so far throughout the series, took 3 wickets for 35 runs.
Then Rahane got the credit of giving India a big advantage. It marked the 12th century of his career under great pressure. With his 112 runs, Rabindra Jadeja’s 56 troops and Gill’s 45 took India beyond 300.
In the second inning, Umesh threw 3.3 overs and took 1 window. But the rest did not let him feel the lack. Two spinners took 4 windows. Bumrah (2/54) -Siraj (3/36) took 5 wickets. This is where the match comes in handy.
The duo will play their third test in Sydney on January 8.
