Australia set a target of 115 for Team India in second innings of Delhi Test.

A clinical bowling performance from Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin helped India bundle out Australia for 113 in their second innings on Day 3 of the ongoing second Border-Gavaskar Trophy Test in Delhi.

Jadeja scalped seven wickets, including Marnus Labuschagne who added vital 35 runs. Ashwin also picked up three wickets, including Travis Head (43) who top-scored for the visitors.

Resuming at 61/1, Ashwin provided the first breakthrough as Head was caught behind by KS Bharat. He then dismissed Steve Smith (9) leg before wicket. Jadeja joined forces and bowled out Labuschagne, leaving the Aussies at 95/3.

The visitors fell like a pack of cards as they lost four wickets without adding a single run on the score of 95. Wicketkeeper-batter Alex Carey and Nathan Lyon helped the team reach the three-figure mark.

Fans were delighted to see Ashwin and Jadeja’s masterclass as the Aussies were bundled out for just 113 in 31.1 overs. The visitors set a target of 115 runs for India in their second innings.

A fan shared a hilarious meme that read:

"Waqt badal diye, jazbat badal diye, jindagi badal di (Changed the time, feelings and life)."
