    "editor1": "<p>Bengaluru, March 7 (CRICKETNMORE): Josh Hazlewood clinched a six-wicket haul as India were dismissed for 274 runs in their second innings on the fourth day of the second cricket Test against Australia here on Tuesday.&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-news\/former-bcci-president-anurag-thakur-apologises-to-supreme-court--24495\">Former BCCI President Anurag Thakur apologises to Supreme Court<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Hazlewood had figures of 6\/74 while fellow pacer Mitchell Starc and spinner Steve O&#39;Keefe took two wickets each.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For India, Cheteshwar Pujara top scored with 92.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The hosts have set a target of 188 runs for Australia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Resuming at the overnight score of 213\/4, Pujara and Ajinkaya Rahane batted steadily for the first half hour or so.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>But the introduction of the second new ball saw a dramatic change in fortunes as Hazlewood and Starc produced a devastating spell which saw five wickets fall in 19 balls.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rahane was the first to go, almost immediately after his half-century. The Mumbai batsman fell to an astute call by Australian skipper Steven Smith who decided to call for the review after the umpire had given a not out decision to a loud lbw appeal from Starc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Smith stood vindicated as the third umpire reversed the on-field official&#39;s decision and sent Rahane on his way.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Starc struck again with his very next ball, uprooting Karun Nair&#39;s middle stump with a fast inswinger to send the batsman back to the pavilion with a golden duck.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Wriddhiman Saha walked in to deny Starc his hattrick with an inside edge on to his pads even as the Australians came up with another loud appeal for lbw.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>There was more trouble in store for the hosts in the next over. Pujara fell in the 90s for the first time in his career when some extra bounce from a Hazlewwood delivery took the shoulder of his bat for a simple catch to Mitchell Marsh at gully.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Ravichandran Ashwin was dismissed only a couple of balls later when a Hazlewood delivery came in sharply after pitching outside the off stump and beat the outside edge of an attempted drive before crashing into the stumps.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Hazlewood completed his six-wicket haul in his next over when Umesh Yadav lofted one to David Warner at mid-off.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Saha and Ishant Sharma then came up with a late partnership to push the hosts&#39; lead to 187.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India: 189 &amp; 274 (Cheteshwar Pujara 92, Ajinkya Rahane 52, Lokesh Rahul 51; Josh Hazlewood 6\/74) vs Australia (First Innings): 276.<\/p>\r\n",
