Team India extended their lead on Day 3 of the 1st Test of the Border Gavaskar Trophy and finally ended their innings on 400/10 in 139.3 overs.
Batting first, Australia scored 177 runs in 63.5 overs and Team India now has a lead of 223 runs.
Thanks to Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, and Axar Patel, Team India has been able to score 400 runs on a pitch which was considered to be a ‘DEMON’ before the start of the match.
Here are the highest scores for India in the 2nd innings:
Rohit Sharma: 120(212)
Axar Patel: 84(174)
Ravindra Jadeja: 70(185)
Since 2010, Team India never had the need to bat in the 4th innings whenever they took 200+ lead in the 2nd innings.
All the Indian fans will now be hoping that Team India clean off Australia in the 3rd innings and taste the first victory of the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
