Cricket-Krishna stalls Australia's victory chase in Sydney
Hindustan TimesBy Nick Mulvenney Cricket-Krishna stalls Australia's victory chase in Sydney SYDNEY, - Indian paceman Prasidh Krishna, standing in for injured skipper Jasprit Bumrah, kept the fifth test on a knife edge on Sunday by reducing Australia to 71 for three at lunch on day three, still 91 runs from their victory target of 162. The Sydney Cricket Ground was bathed in pink for Glenn McGrath's cancer charity with another packed house enjoying the sunshine and anticipating a final dramatic chapter in an enthralling series. The tourists had resumed on 141-6 looking to bolster their lead of 145 but were soon on the back foot as Australia captain Pat Cummins had Ravindra Jadeja caught behind for 13 and took out Washington Sundar's middle stump for 12. That brought Bumrah to the crease but he did not stay long as Scott Boland first removed Mohammed Siraj and then shattered the wickets of the India skipper in the space of three balls.
