Cricket-Australia take seven wickets after tea to win classic Melbourne test

Hindustan Times  

By Ian Ransom Cricket-Australia take seven wickets after tea to win classic Melbourne test MELBOURNE, - Australia took seven wickets after tea on day five to win a classic fourth test against India by 184 runs and snatch a 2-1 series lead heading into the final match in Sydney. Australia captain Pat Cummins and fellow pacer Scott Boland finished with three wickets apiece, with spinner Nathan Lyon chipping in two on a dramatic final day which was tinged with controversy over the use of the Decision Review System. "It's pretty disappointing," said India captain Rohit Sharma, who was dismissed for nine on Monday after managing three in the first innings. India will rue their failure to clean up Australia's tail late on day four, with Lyon and Boland finishing with a 61-run partnership for the final wicket.
