The partnership helped team India to come back in the game and not only have India seem stable but also consistent with the team’s overall performance and the skipper led the team with a fantastic run score in the first innings which can help the Indian bowlers to bowl aggressively as India will be eyeing yet another win.

Yash Dhull got run out in the 45th over and the unlucky skipper had to walk back to the pavilion but with his bat raised as the critical century have impacted team India’s score, helping the middle order to take the score to at least 275 runs. Yash Dhull ends his innings by scoring 110 runs in 110 balls.

Yash Dhull got run-out by bowler Nisbet and it was the only way Australia could have broken this wonderful partnership. Rasheed’s classical drive led to a slight touch from the bowler’s finger which directed the bowl to hit the non-striker stump which unfortunately resulted in Dhull’s inning-end.

Surprisingly Rajvardhan comes up with the order as Raj Bawa and Sindhu were available to bat. India might seem to hit in the last overs.
