Todd Murphy flighted one outside the off-stump and beat Kohli all ends up

In the first over of the Post-Tea session, Australia created a chance to dismiss Virat Kohli who had been going through a poor run of form of late. In the last ball of the 64th over, Todd Murphy flighted one outside the off-stump and beat Kohli all ends up.

Smith wanted to go for a caught-behind review

Alex Carey whipped off the bails and appealed for stumping. But the leg-umpire turned the appeal down. Realizing the importance of the wicket, Smith wanted to go for a caught-behind review.

He didn’t get support from his teammates

But he didn’t get support from his teammates. Smith asked Carey and Murphy if the Aussies should use the DRS. Even though Smith felt that Kohli might have got an inside edge. Carey and Murphy didn’t think so.

Wouldn’t have paid dividends

Later, replays showed that the 34-year-old Kohli didn’t get an inside edge. Had Australia used DRS, it wouldn’t have paid dividends.

Earlier, in the second session, Shubman Gill got to his second Test hundred off 194 balls. He was also involved in a partnership of 113 runs with Cheteshwar Pujara, who scored 42 runs off 121 balls with three fours.

Australia has already conceded the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after losing the Tests in Nagpur and Delhi. But they made amends with a nine-wicket win at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. With the series at 1-2, the Aussies will be looking to avoid a series defeat.
