IND vs AUS 3rd Test In Indore
The third Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 Test between India and Australia will begin on March 1 at Holkar Stadium in Indore. This Test match was scheduled to take place at the Dharamsala HPCA stadium
Nevertheless, due to ongoing pitch relaying work at the ground, BCCI was forced to shift the location. Indore supporters who will have the chance to fill the seats at the Holkar stadium to watch a championship game between Australia and India would see the change of location as a blessing in disguise. There are still few tickets available for the five days of the match in Indore. The third Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 will take place between India and Australia starting on March 1.\
On the third day morning, Australia easily handled the run chase as they fought their way back into the series with one Test remaining. Australia's participation in the World Test Championship final is now guaranteed thanks to the victory, barring the potential of being penalised for Ahmedabad's sluggish overrate.
statistics from the Indore Test that stand out:
Since 2013, India has suffered 3 defeats in 45 home Test matches. Before this loss in Indore, they were defeated by Australia by 333 runs in Pune in 2017 and by England by 227 runs in Chennai four years later.
8/64 by Nathan Lyon is the joint third-best figure in an inning for a visiting bowler in India. It also happens to be Lyon's second-best career figure behind his 8/50 against India in Bengaluru in 2017. Lyon went past Anil Kumble's tally of 111 wickets to be the highest wicket-taker in India-Australia contests.
That's another Test in this series which finished within three days. And it was Australia who came out on top. They might not have a chance to win the series but there's still a chance to draw it and if this game's performance is anything to go by then we can expect an even contest in Ahmedabad. Both teams have almost a week to prepare for that Test and hopefully, it will be a fitting finale to what has been a superb series. So, that's a wrap for now
India had taken 10 wickets and Australia needed 76 runs before the day began. The only relief for India came from Ashwin's dismissal of the in-form Khawaja off the second ball of the day. Labuschagne and Head prepared to take their time and sat down. For the first 10 overs, not a single aggressive shot was hit. Then, the ball was changed, and at the same time, there was a message from the Australian dressing room. These two events got the pair going, especially Head, and there was a flurry of boundaries that ended India's resistance. India entered this Test requiring a victory to advance to the WTC final, but Australia ended up winning.
their spot in the WTC final.
Thirty wickets were lost in the first two days of the third Test at Indore, and the pitch was at the centre of it all. Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, elevated Ravindra Jadeja over Shreyas Iyer to counteract Australia's threat with spin. Even if the plan was unsuccessful, former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar criticised the skipper for his choice. Manjrekar asserted that it did not make sense to him and that Iyer is effective against spinners.
