In the second innings also, the Indian batsmen were embarrassing. Due to which India could score only 175 runs in the second innings. Let us tell you that in this Pink Ball Test, the Indian team was all out for 180 runs in its first innings. Hosts Australia were all out for 337 in their first innings. In this way, Australia got a lead of 157 runs on the basis of the first innings, which cost the Indian team dearly

Indian team advanced their innings with a score of 128 for the loss of 5 wickets on the third day. Rishabh Pant lost his wicket in the first over of the third day. Nitish Reddy remained firm from one end but could not take the Indian innings to a big score. If the Kangaroo team wins, its winning streak will continue in the pink-ball Test matches in Adelaide. Australia have played 7 pink ball Tests in Adelaide so far and have won each time

Pat Cummins behaved
When Mitchell Starc attacked the Indian batting in the first innings, this time Pat Cummins shook team India's batting line-up by taking 5 wickets in the innings. Cummins took the wickets of KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Ravichandran Ashwin and Harshit Rana in the second innings. His most special wicket was that of Nitish Reddy, who looked in good touch. Cummins set up brilliantly and caught at third man

India may have been able to set a target of just 19 runs, but Indian cricket has definitely got a world-class all-rounder player in Nitish Reddy. Reddy did not prove to be very effective in bowling, but he was the highest scorer for India in both innings of the Adelaide Test
