    BGT 2024-25: Pacers, Jaiswal & Kohli Centuries Set Up India For Emphatic Win Over Australia (ld)

    Pacers Jasprit Bumrah: Captain Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj picked three wickets collectively as India reduced Australia to 12/3 inside 26 balls and left them in tatters in a chase of 534 at stumps on Day Three of the first Test of the Border-Gavskar Trophy Series at the Perth Stadium here on Sunday.

    It was a day of dominant Test cricket 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 hundred on Australian soil and his first of this year.

    It came after Jaiswal put India in the driver's seat with a brilliant 161 off 297 balls, his fourth Test century, to decimate the Australian bowlers. In defence of 534, India struck on the fourth ball as Bumrah trapped Nathan McSweeney lbw with an in-ducker for a duck in the opening over. Australia’s experiment with nightwatchman Pat Cummins ended when he edged to second slip off Mohammed Siraj for just two.
