A Virat Kohli century in a chase and an India defeat is as rare a cricketing combination as they come. But today was to be one of those days. Pat Cummins, Jhye Richardson and Adam Zampa returned three wickets each after Aaron Finch and Usman Khawaja set the base for Australia's total of 313 to complete a clinical all-round show for the visitors. A lot of positives for Austrlia from this game and the same loopholes exposed for India yet again.

Jhye Richardson bags the last two wickets and India fold up for 281, handing Australia a 32-run win to keep the series alive.

WICKET Ravindra Jadeja extended the fight but not to much effect. Eventually, he holed out to Glenn Maxwell at mid on. Jhye Richardson gets another wicket.

Yet again, Adam Zampa has brought Australia a much-needed breakthrough. Virat Kohli is all over the shot and cleaned up. Huge wicket.

41! Virat Kohli has registered yet another triple digit score. Just another day at work for the Indian skipper. More importantly, he is keeping India in the chase.
