India’s Jasprit Bumrah, dealing with back spasms, did not play in Australia’s chase on Day 3 of the fifth Test in Sydney. Despite a valiant 61 from Rishabh Pant, India were dismissed for 157. With a 2-1 series lead, Australia targets the World Test Championship final against South Africa. Australia are 2-1 up in the series and will regain the Border-Gavaskar trophy for the first time since 2014-15 if they win or draw.
