BGT 2024-25: Bumrah, Siraj Pick 3 Wickets To Put India On Top After Jaiswal & Kohli Smash Tons
Captain Jasprit Bumrah: Captain Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj shared three wickets as India reduced Australia to 12/3 inside 26 balls in their second innings and left them in tatters in a chase of 534 at stumps on Day Three of the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series at Perth Stadium here on Sunday.
It was a day to remember for India as Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed centuries to help India declare at 487/6 and feast on a tiring Australian bowling line-up. Kohli's unbeaten century came off 143 balls, laced with eight fours and two sixes, as he hit his seventh Test century on Australian soil. It came after Jaiswal put India in the driver's seat with a brilliant 161 off 297 balls, his fourth Test century.
In defence of 534, India struck on the fourth ball as Bumrah trapped Nathan McSweeney lbw with an in-ducker for zero in the opening over. Australia’s experiment with nightwatchman Pat Cummins ended when he edged to second slip off Mohammed Siraj for just two.
