At press time this morning, Australia were 279 for 9 needing 49 runs for a stunning victory in the first test at Adelaide while India needed only one wicket.
Earlier yesterday, India’s pacemen removed Australia’s last two specialist batsmen to put Virat Kohli’s side within four wickets of victory at lunch on the final day of the first test on Monday.
Ishant Sharma had local favourite Travis Head caught for 14 in the gully early in the session before Jasprit Bumrah broke through to have Shaun Marsh caught behind for 60 after the drinks break at Adelaide Oval.
