VICTORY FOR INDIA:

KL Rahul gets his fifty with the last runs needed for victory. He ends with his fifth consecutive fifty of the series and remains unbeaten. India clinch the Border-Gavaskar series with the 2-1 win.

This has been a series to remember. Rahane and Smith walk back having a chat with each other. They'll be team mates soon but have fought hard against each other right through. Australia have been the most competitive team in India through their home season and that has made for a truly memorable series.

India now have won their last Test series against all other countries.

Teams to hold the trophy vs all 9 opponents simultaneously:

Aus (Oct 2004-Sep 2005)

Aus (Dec 2006-Nov 2008)

SA (Dec 2012-Mar 2014)

Early drama

Two loud appeals for LBW in the first over of the day. Hazlewood is shaping them back in to Vijay who is lucky twice. The first time he was struck outside off and there was an inside edge in the second. But clearly he's in some trouble early against Hazlewood.

The match so far

What a day, what a lovely day that was. It's not often that days like the third day in Dharamsala happen. Test cricket doesn't get more Mad Max than that. At the end of it though, it was India who look set to take the series. They need 87 more with ten wickets in hand. We've come down to the last day of what has been a truly memorable and undoubtedly wonderful Test series.

The off-field controversies aside, the series has produced cricket of a very high quality. Can we get to see one more such day? Can Australia ruffle India or will the latter cruise through?
