Australia took their moments, India didn’t have the determination to tough it out.

Have been to a couple of Boxing Day tests but nothing as entertaining as this.
Sensational win. Fantastic cricket.

Never in doubt :upside_down_face:

Lyon picks up Siraj with the first ball of his next over. LBW given. Being reviewed. No bat involved. Ball tracking says YOU ARE OUT! Australia win by 184. The win was set up in the first hour this morning when the fast bowlers strangled the Indian top order and dried up the runs. India was not interested in chasing the win. The game turned on the over by Head when he picked up the wicket of the impulsive Pant.

An enthralling game and a superb victory.

Luckily I woke up again around midnight in time for this. Five days of 1am finishes was too much.
