Gawn !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boland to Bumrah, out Caught by Smith!! That's an outstanding catch from Smith at first slip! Razor sharp reflexes there from Smith. This one rears up from a length outside off as it keeps coming in with the angle, Bumrah commits to the front foot as he looks to block tentatively but gets an outside edge behind. Smith at first slip gets low and takes it


Bumrah c Smith b Boland 0(

155 all out

However reviewing an LBW

Ozz won by 184

79.1
Lyon to Siraj, out Lbw!! Siraj has been trapped in front but he takes the review. That's the only option he has. Looked adjacent to the naked eye. Turned in sharply from a length outside off and kept a bit low, Siraj looked to work it across but missed to get pinged on the pads. Time for the replays. Snicko shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it reveals three reds - it would have crashed into the leg-stump

Siraj lbw b Lyon 0(2)

Clinical conclusion by the Aussies. Well done. A good test match too with record attendance at the MCG.

Hats off to the young India opener Jaiswal whose 82 and 84 among the spoils speak much for
a bright future. India has a diamond as the obvious transitions will be made for
a splendid India team over the past decade and more.

AUS 474 & 234

IND 369 & 155

Australia won by 184 runs

Good driving Narper.

I went bed early and woke up to assist you bro.

Your co-pilot was late but I showed up.

Great win, Oz. Shows the value of a balanced attack. Having Lyons in their armoury has really helped Oz over the years. I hope that we also realise that and encourage Motie or whomsoever as our test quality spinner. An OZ v SA world test championship final will be something to look forward to but I think Oz has the edge with the batting
