Several Australian cricketers needed to return to the sector after leaving prematurely following a profitable DRS assessment from India on Day 3 of the World Test Championship (WTC) Final at The Oval on Friday. In a uncommon incident, the Australian cricketers determined to not anticipate the third umpire’s determination when Mohammed Siraj was given out LBW within the 68th over of the Indian innings. It was the ultimate wicket for India and though the on-field umpire gave him out, the choice was in the end reversed. The cricketers needed to shortly come again to the sector as boos rang throughout the bottom following the incident.

Usman Khawaja (13 batting) and Marnus Labuschagne (8 batting) had been on the crease.

Mohammed Siraj was the lone wicket-taker for India, eradicating David Warner for 1.

Australia led India by 196 runs.

Earlier, replying to Australia’s 469, India had been all out for 296 in 69.4 overs.

Ajinkya Rahane couldn’t rating a century (89 off 129 balls) on comeback as he departed within the second over after lunch, brilliantly caught by Cameron Green at gully off skipper Pat Cummins.

Resuming the day on 151 for 5, India misplaced wicketkeeper-batter KS Bharat (5) early when Scott Boland cleaned him up. But the pair of Rahane and Shardul Thakur (51) led India’s resistance.
