India couldn’t have asked for a better day of Test cricket on day three of the fourth Test against Australia at Dharamsala on Monday.
When the home side started the day at 248/6, they would have been hoping to get a lead of 20-30 runs and set a new target from there.
But after they attained a 32-run lead, the bowlers did a fantastic job to bundle Australia out for 137 runs and help India restrict Australia’s lead to a meagre 105 runs.
KL Rahul and Murali Vijay negotiated six overs and ended the day with India on 19/0. They just need another 87 runs to win the fourth Test and the four-match series 2-1.
Here’s a look at how the cricket world reacted to India’s incredible performance on day three of the Dharamsala Test.
