AUS vs IND, 2nd Test: Australia levels series with breezy win in pink-ball encounter against India

The Hindu  

It was a Sunday on fast-forward here at the Adelaide Oval. On the third day, just a mere 16.1 overs were needed as the dregs of defeat stained India’s measured progress so far in its sojourn Down Under. RELATED | Catch the highlights from day 3 of the IND vs AUS 2nd Test Jasprit Bumrah kept it tight during the opening over, Mohammed Siraj, running into boos from the crowd, yielded a few runs, and Nitish Reddy found McSweeney picking his spots on the off-side for fours. Nitish Kumar, a revelation so far in this series, whipped a four off Cummins and edged Starc past the ropes, while interest was centred on whether India would make Australia bat again. The Australian skipper scalped Ashwin but Nitish dabbled in small mercies, clouting a four off Scott Boland as India wiped out the 157-run first-innings deficit.
