IND vs AUS Highlights, 2nd Test, Day 3: India produced yet another commanding show as Rohit Sharma and Co. defeated Australia by six wickets in the second Test in New Delhi. The hosts once again wrapped up the proceedings well inside three days to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the four-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Cheteshwar Pujara, who was making his 100th Test appearance, hit the winning runs as he returned unbeaten on 31. KS Bharat was the batter at the other end, who finished on 23 off 22 balls. With 115 required to win, India lost KL Rahul early in the run chase. Rohit Sharma and Pujara then moved things forward, before India lost their second wicket after a terrible mix-up. Rohit was run-out for 31, and Virat Kohli along with Pujara took charge. The former was then stumped for 20, reducing India to 69/3. Shreyas Iyer then played a few shots before throwing away his wicket for 12. Pujara, however, remained firm at one end and drove India home. The day started with Ravindra Jadeja running a riot as he scalped seven wickets. R Ashwin too picked three wickets as Australia were packed for 113 in the second innings after resuming from the overnight score of 61/1. It all started with Ashwin striking in the first over, removing Travis Head for 43. Steve Smith was packed moments later, who was trapped LBW for 9. Jadeja then joined the party and cleaned up Marnus Labuschagne for 35. The demolition continued and Matt Kuhnemann was the final Aussie batter to be dismissed.

India vs Australia Live Score: Jadeja at post-match presentation
“These wickets suit me because the odd ball spins and some stay low. I knew they'd play sweeps and reverse sweeps, so my idea was just keeping it simple and straight. I knew they were looking for runs, so the plan was just bowling into the stumps. If they make a mistake, I have a chance. Don't think the sweep is a good option against me on this kind of wicket.”
India vs Australia Live Score: Captains speak
Pat Cummins: “I thought 260 was a decent score in the first innings. The guys bounced back well. But India batted well, just 1-2 partnerships and you can get to that 260 mark quite easily. Disappointed, we were ahead of the game but we slipped. We need a review on what could have been done different. Both games were disappointing, this one in particular. We were ahead in the game and that doesn't happen often in India. This loss hurts.”
Rohit Sharma: “Looking at how things were yesterday, the way we came back and finished our job was great. Even if we were just one run behind, I felt we were trailing because we had to bat last. I think the bowlers were fantastic, to take 9 wickets today morning is commendable. And then we finished the job with the bat. There are lot of moments across four innings, but I thought the partnership between Jadeja and Virat, and then Axar-Ash was brilliant. I think that's a big help because of the balance we have created for ourselves.”

“I thought we'll chase something around 200-250, so we were prepared to go and do that.”
