India vs Australia, WTC Final Day 3 Live Score and Updates: Shami and Siraj are looking to snaffle more wickets in the final session
India vs Australia, WTC Final Day 3 Live Score and Updates: India were saved the blushes somewhat on Day 3 thanks to a valiant seventh wicket stand between Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur. The pair put up 109 runs off 145 balls and ensured that India lost just one wicket in the first session. However, the stand didn't survive too long in the second session with Ajinkya Rahane falling to Pat Cummins on 89 thanks to a sensational catch at gully by Cameron Green. Thakur fought on and reached a half century before falling on 51 to Green. India were eventually all out for 296 and Australia took a first innings lead of 173 runs. David Warner then fell early as Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami came in all guns blazing. Marnus Labuschagne and Usman Khawaja then survived the 11-over burst before Tea and Australia were 23/1 at the end of the session.

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: FOUR! Smith making his intent clear
Short from Shami but instead of defending or ducking underneath it, which is what Labuschagne and Khawaja have been doing all session, Smith dismisses it from his presence with a pull shot. He has raced to 7 off 2 here.

WTC Final 2023 Live score: FOUR!
Poor one from Umesh, he gets a wicket off the first ball and then strays on to the pads with a full slip cordon present for the third. Labuschagne tucks that away fine. Rohit Sharma understandably not happy with that.

Jun 09, 2023 08:18 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: OUT! Umesh gets Khawaja!
Khawaja takes a waft at a full delivery outside off, he only gets an edge to the wicketkeeper. India banking on this strange approach from Australia. They have been extremely defensive despite the huge lead that they have.

WTC Final 2023 Live score: TEA! Australia 23/1, lead by 196
India continue to have the momentum despite the fact that Australia are 193 runs ahead. How relieved would they be that they have this cushion that was provided by their batters over the course of Day 1 and Day 2. Despite the good work, it remains a major uphill struggle for India to turn it around a win for them continues to look improbable.

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: Siraj hits Labuschagne!
And then gets right in his face with a smile. Good length delivery rears up and raps Labuschagne on the glove, he throws the bat away and waves his bat around but manages to return Siraj's stare as well.

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: Australia 12/1 in 7 overs
Well there was almost another run out off the second ball of that over. This thime the roles were reversed, Khawaja was at the non-striker's end and sent Labuschagne back. There was arguably an easy single there and so Labuschagne won't be too happy with that call.
-
Jun 09, 2023 07:15 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: Australia get away with a mix-up!
Length ball from Siraj for the third delivery of the sixth, Labuschagne taps wide of third man where Gill puts in a full length dive and stops it. Labuschagne comes a couple of steps down before trying to send Khawaja back but the latter is already at his end of the pitch! Gill, though throws at the striker's end and so Labuschagne has time to reach the crease.
-
Jun 09, 2023 07:12 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: Australia 5/1 in 5 overs
Shami and Siraj making the Aussies duck and weave at the moment. Khawaja is on 3 off 19, Labuschagne is on none off 3.

Jun 09, 2023 07:01 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: GONE! Siraj gets Warner
Warner nicks the third ball of the fourth over behind and someone has to wake Marnus up! It's time for him to come out to bat. He was snoring away with his pads on leaning back on his chair at the balcony up until that wicket fell. Warner rooted to the top spot as he hangs his bat out at the back of a length delivery, outside edge to the wicketkeeper who takes a brilliant catch.

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: Shardul Thakur and Don Bradman in the same bracket
Forget about comparisons with Ian "Beefy" Botham, Thakur has equalled The Don himself today. This was his third consecutive half century at The Oval and he is only the second man to do so since Bradman.

Jun 09, 2023 06:49 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: Australia 1/0 & 469

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: Australia still well ahead
It had been a brilliant fightback from India's lower order but a 173-run lead on this pitch is gigantic. Australia are still well ahead and it is pretty safe to say that a win is pretty much impossible for India in normal Test match terms. But this is the "ultimate Test", wonder if some miracles are in store. For now, Australia effectively start their second innings on 173/0.

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: Siraj reverses an LBW decision!
Scenes here! The Australians were walking off the field, they thought Green got Siraj. Yorker that rapped Siraj on the pads, big appeal from the Aussies and the umpire raises his finger. Siraj reviews immediately but the Aussies almost ignore that, that's how confident they were of this being out. As it turns out, there was a little nick! The Aussies have to run back! Warner and Khawaja even had started getting their pads on. Hilarious scenes.

WTC Final 2023 Live score: FOUR! Fifty for Thakur!
Fourth Test half century for Shardul Thakur, another one that has come at a time when India were down and out. He copped a blow on the body off the previous ball of that over, then drives the last ball past mid-off to the boundary. This has been a colossal innings from the fast bowling all-rounder, he has been part of some famous Indian wins over the last few years with the bat and this is another one of those innings.
-
Jun 09, 2023 06:18 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: FOUR! Beauty from Thakur!
Third ball of the 68th from Cummins, he overpitches and Thakur straight drives the ball right past the bowler to the boundary.
-
Jun 09, 2023 06:14 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: BACK TO BACK FOURS!
It is off an inside edge and it misses the stumps to go to the boundary but Shami won't care about any of that. He will tell you that he hit back to back fours off a bowler against whom the likes of Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara struggled to get a single run off.
-
Jun 09, 2023 06:13 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: FOUR! Shami is in the house!

Jun 09, 2023 06:04 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: India 266/7 in 65 overs
India three runs away from avoiding the follow on now. It has quietened down since Rahane's dismissal but India would hope that they can survive as long as possible in this session.

WTC Final 2023 Live score: OUT! WHAT A CATCH, RAHANE GOES!
Oh that's a catch for the ages at gully from Cameron Green and Ajinkya Rahane won't get his 13th Test century. Short of a length from Cummins for the last ball of the 62nd. Rahane takes a waft, thick outside edge and it darts to the right of gully. Green has almost no reaction time, sticks out his right hand and the ball sticks. He had dropped an absolute sitter and now he takes a ripper. Ah, Test cricket. Rahane gets applause as he walks off, the partnership between him and Thakur ends on 109 off 145.
Rahane c Green b Cummins 89 (129), India 261/7 in 62 overs

Jun 09, 2023 05:02 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: LUNCH! India 260/6, trail Australia by 209 runs
Cummins lost his head a bit there, boots the ball to slip after the last delivery of that session. Australia collectively seemed to lose it really in that over and so they will be glad that this session is over. It has been India's through and through solely because of this extraordinarilt gutsy partnership from Rahane and Thakur. They have both been peppered by the Aussie pacers, particularly Cummins, but they stood strong. Eventually, the rub of the green also went their way with Australia dropping catches at slip and Cummins overstepping yet again after getting a batter out LBW. Rahane is on 89 off 122, Thakur on 36 off 83, the partnership between the pair is on 108 off 133.

Jun 09, 2023 05:00 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: And now Australia lose a review
When it rains it pours. Fifth ball of that over flies past Thakur's outside edge. Carey and Smith at first slip wanted Cummins to review it, Warner at second slip wasn't interested. Neither was Cummins really but he goes for it. Flat line as the ball passed bat.
-
Jun 09, 2023 04:58 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: NO BALL! Decision reversed!
AGAIN! Rahane was on 17 yesterday when Cummins had got him off a no ball. Now replays show that the Australian captain had overstepped here as well. And just to put salt and chilli powder on wounds, replays further show that the umpire's call would have been held up, as was the case with Rahane yesterday.

Jun 09, 2023 04:58 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: Thakur given LBW but he reviews!

Rahane welcomes Lyon with a wonderful drive through cover-point. It was a half-volley from Lyon and Rahane is not going to miss out on those. What an innings this is from Rahane on his return to the Indian team.
-
Jun 09, 2023 04:40 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: EDGED AND DROPPED!
Some luck there for Rahane and it wasn't the easiest of chances. But that should have been taken by either Carey or Warner at first slip. Full from Cummins, a little bit of an away movement. Rahane drives at it, outside edge and Warner seemed to be put off by a slight movement towards the trajectory of the ball that Carey made. He stuck out his left hand after Carey pulled out and stood no chance really. Rahane has enjoyed his fair share of luck today.
-
Jun 09, 2023 04:36 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: 5000 Test runs for Rahane

Jun 09, 2023 04:25 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: India 223/6, trail by 246
Partnership between Rahane and Thakur on 70 off 88 which officially makes it India's best of this Test. Rahane on 67 off 106, Thakur on 24 off 55. It's Green and Starc who are alternating now. Wonder when Australia will bring in their GOAT.

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: FOUR! Rahane takes a slash
And the top edge flies over slips. There was a big shout for LBW off the previous ball that the umpire turned down. Cummins went upstairs and it was umpire's call that was held up.

Jun 09, 2023 03:58 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: 200 up for India!
Thakur with a single off the first ball of the 49th in which Cameron Green is introduced. 200 looked a long way away when India were 71/4 and even 142/5 yesterday. Well, let's face it, it looked far away when Bharat fell earlier today as well. Some old fashioned khadoos cricket here from the Mumbai pair of Rahane and Thakur.
-
Jun 09, 2023 03:51 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: India 196/6 in 47 overs, trail by 273 runs
An encouraging passage of play for India. The partnership between Rahane and Thakur is on 44 off 53. Rahane is on 52 off 92, Thakur on 13 off 33. Thakur gets his finger looked at after the 47th over. Australia have gone with Boland and Cummins since the start of the day but now Starc comes in to replace the latter.

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: SIX! Rahane brings up fifty in style
Ajinkya Rahane gave a little glimpse of what he had been doing with CSK in the 2023 IPL out of nowhere. Last ball of the 46th from Cummins and Rahane pulls it away long leg for a giant six. He gets to his 26th fifty in Tests, it has come in 92 balls and it is worth its value in gold for India. What a player.
-
Jun 09, 2023 03:41 PM IST
IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: India 178/6 in 45 overs
You wouldn't want to be an Indian batter out there at the Oval at the moment. Boland and Cummins are making Thakur and Rahane see some stars. Particularly Cummins on Thakur. Boland bowled the 45th and the last ball was edged by Rahane just short of gully. The 'just' has to emphasised here because it was a matter of millimetres.
-
Jun 09, 2023 03:34 PM IST
WTC Final 2023 Live score: DROPPED!
Green has dropped a sitter at gully. Cummins's second ball off the 44th, takes Thakur's edge and it is in and out of Green's hands.

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: Cummins continues his onslaught
Thakur somehow survives that test from Cummins without getting out, or knocked out for that matter. After he got treatment, the fourth ball is lasered in on his gloves by the relentless Australian captain. Then Thakur middles a defensive shot and gets a lot of applause from the crowd before getting beaten on the outside edge off the last. Thakur was playing a few shots before this but Cummins has now forced him to wear an arm guard on his back forearm and a lot of blunt trauma to remember.

WTC Final 2023 Live score: Cummins hits Thakur again!
Off the very next ball, on the forearm again and this time, understandably, Thakur is in much more pain. He throws his right hand glove off immediately. Relentless and ruthless.

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: Treatment for Thakur
Once again, it is Cummins who is causing an Indian batter some pain. Shot of a length, seams away, it squares Thakur up and it hits him on the forearm. The physio is out there.

IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023 Day 3 Live: FOUR!

IND vs AUS Day 3 Live: BOWLED HIM!
Top of off second ball of the day. Bharat doesn't even last a single delivery on Day 3, Boland you beauty! Sends it in at a length seaming in, Bharat is squared up, the ball creeps in between bat and pads and rattles the stump.

India vs Australia WTC Final Day 3 Live score: The weather and pitch
It is very un-English conditions, in the way that there are clear blue skies above the Oval and the sun is beating down on the pitch, which is just brilliant for Australia with runs on board. There will be more cracks on the pitch with the deterioration that comes with the heat.

Jun 09, 2023 02:33 PM IST
IND vs AUS Day 3 Live score: What India can do from here
Hope. That is all India can do. Hope, and make Ajinkya Rahane and KS Bharat believe that they can hold their bat up against the Australian bowlers even if they fling grenades at them. India need some hard-nosed Test cricket batting from Rahane and Bharat here. Either that or they fling their bat at it Bazzball style and hope it sticks but the likelihood of that coming off against Boland, Cummins and Co. is rather negligible. India need Rahane and Bharat to survive the first hour. Then they need them to survive the next hour, and so on and so forth. On a deteriorating pitch, that is much, much easier said than done.

WTC Final Day 3 Live score: Ponting a fan of Siraj
Siraj took four wickets in the Australian innings and has been one of the few brights lights for India in this Test thus far. The fast bowler was at his usual feisty self, particularly in a little passage of play against Steve Smith where he threw the ball angrily at the general area behind the striker's end after the batter pulled out a la Mitchell Johnson vs Kevin Pietersen 2013 Boxing Day Test. This is what Ricky Ponting had to say about Siraj.
"Maybe sometimes he gets carried away and goes a little bit over the top, but you need those guys in your side when things aren't going well. He was the one today who said I am going to be the guy that is going to turn things around and what I loved was that his pace didn't drop at all during the whole innings," Ponting told International Cricket Council (ICC). "From the first ball yesterday morning until late this afternoon, his pace was hovering around that 86 or 87-mile-and-hour mark and that says a lot about a great attitude," he added.

IND vs AUS, WTC Final Day 3 Live score: Kohli was out to a short ball?
Well it looked to everyone that the delivery that got Kohli out off Starc had reared up from a good length but Sanjay Manjrekar apparently something different on the pitch map.
“A lot was being said about the ball but I looked at the pitch map and the ball had actually pitched halfway. That's a short ball and if you see Virat Kohli, that is the problem I have had with him the last couple of years. He is on the front foot no matter what. That ball is halfway down the pitch. It is a snorter if the ball is up from good length where most batters get out on the front foot. That is why I have become a proponent of the back foot play. If you see his reaction, he has gone on the front foot. Once the ball rears up while you are on the front foot, you have got no chance,” he said on ESPNCricinfo.

India vs Australia Live Score, Day 3 WTC Final: Rahane's close call
It was in the 22nd over of the Indian innings that a turning point of sorts came in Rahane's stay in the middle. Until then, the former India vice-captain was looking fluid and aggressive but then came a big LBW appeal from Pat Cummins and Australia. The umpire nodded his head and raised his finger and it looked like India's last hope of putting up a real challenge with the bat was extinguished. Rahane took the review but it wasn't the confident kind that batters take when they know they have edged it and to the naked eye, he was dead for all money. But what does the naked eye know nowadays about front foot no balls. Both the camera angles available for the third umpire was somewhat obscured by either the non-striker or Marnus Labuschagne but the first replay showed clear enough visual proof. The Australian captain had overstepped and had to bowl the last ball of the 22nd over again. It was later shown that had his foot been behind the line, further replays would have held up umpire's call and Rahane would have been gone. Cummins followed that up with a length ball angling into the stumps that smacked Rahane on the finger. It would be 24 balls before he would score another run after that.

WTC Final, India vs Australia Live Score, Day 3: Boland the key for Australia
Most of the Indian fans rejoiced when Josh Hazlewood was ruled out of the WTC final due to a side strain but those who knew about his replacement - Scott Boland - didn't. Boland, a workhorse for Victoria in domestic cricket, has had a terrific start to his Test career and he was always going to be a tough challenge for any batting unit because of the constant questions he asks with his nagging line and length. He will once again be one of Australia's main weapons on Day 3 and also in the second innings.

India vs Australia Live Score, Day 3 WTC Final: Save the follow on
Let's face it! India would do well if they save the follow-on from here on. They still need 119 runs to do that with only five wickets in hand and the less said about India's lower-order in overseas conditions the better it is. This is not to say Australia will make India bat again if they fail to reach 270 but it will be a psychological boost for the Rohit Sharma-led side if they save the follow-on. In order to do that, Rahane and Bharat will have to bat out of their skins.

IND vs AUS WTC 2023 Final Day 3 Live Score: Rahane's finger injury a worry
Ajinkya Rahane looked in sublime touch till he was hit on the forefinger by a Pat Cummins delivery which raised from the length. Rahane took a fair bit of time to get over that as the physios treated him in the middle. Since then, Rahane went into a shell. He decided to bat out the day instead of going for the runs like Jadeja did. India would be hoping that the injury is not serious and Rahane can bat at his absolute best today.
