Delhi: India did wonders on the last day of the third test match. After India’s innings ended at 260 runs, Australia had already lost 6 wickets. During this time, an interesting moment was seen, when Mohammad Siraj came to bowl, Virat Kohli gave an important advice to Rohit Sharma.

‘3399 runs in 65 innings, average of 55.7’, Prithvi Shaw got angry, showed the figures to the selectors

What was the conversation on the field?

Rohit asked Siraj, “Where are you bowling from?”
Siraj replied, “Over the Stumps.”

On this Rohit said, “By bowling over the stumps, it will be easier for the batsman to open his stance.”

Then Virat said to Rohit, “No-no, let him bowl over the stumps only. If he bowls scrambled seam deliveries, there will be more chances of taking wickets. Siraj is doing right. Keep square leg a little deep to get the benefit of inswing, and let him aim at the stumps.”

India got the target of 275

Siraj took full advantage of Kohli’s advice and bowled brilliantly, dismissing dangerous batsmen like Steve Smith and Travis Head. Australia declared the innings at 89/7, leaving India a target of 275. In the second innings, India scored 8 runs in 2.1 overs till the tea break.
