Smith Proves to Be Australia‘s Most Prolific Run-Scorer; India Struggles with Bowlers

Steve Smith, the Australian cricketer who has been one of the most consistent run-scorers for his team, completed another half-century. Smith looked in superb touch alongside Head yesterday, with a concerning partnership of 150 runs for third wicket. Mohammed Shami struggled to execute the ideal bowling technique while bowling to Head, which aided his effortless uppercut for 6. On the other hand, India continued to struggle, as the bowlers were not able to deliver the ideal length consistently. India‘s over rate was also frustratingly slow, which might have been a potential reason for their inability to find wickets.

Final Session is Crucial for India

The last session of the World Test Championship match between India and Australia is bound to be exciting. India needs to make something happen as they failed to take the crucial wickets in previous sessions, letting Australia off the hook. Even though Head provided some excellent cricket moments in the previous session, Smith is the real danger man. With more than 100 balls faced, he seemed more assured at the crease, and he is back in a part of the world where he prospers. However, India needs bulk wickets in this particular session to make the game interesting.

Conclusion

The World Test Championship match between India and Australia was remarkable, with Head‘s maiden century being the highlight of the day. The match could turn out to be an important one, given its significance in cricket history. India needs to create greater momentum and build up the pressure in the final session of the game. With their over rate becoming an issue, it will be interesting to see how they will manage the remaining overs. Australia, on the other hand, needs to continue the impressive performance they delivered in the previous session. Overall, the next session will be telling for both teams, and it remains to be seen how things will pan out.
