Peak of rowdy behaviour: Virat on Sydney 'racial' abuse

India skipper Virat Kohli called it the peak of rowdy behaviour after some spectators directed racial abuse at Indian players during the third Test and were expelled from the Sydney Cricket Ground. Kohli, in a series of tweets, addressed the racial incident directed at Mohammed Siraj by the Sydney Cricket Ground crowd in the third Test of the four-match Test series. He said the incident needs to be looked at with absolute urgency and seriousness and strict action against the offenders should set things straight for once.

India was reduced to 186/6 in the first innings but Sundar & Thakur's 123-run stand helped the visitors end at 336.

Day 3 didn't start as per India's liking as they lost Cheteshwar Pujara early. Ajinkya Rahane and Mayank Agarwal looked determined but both fell for 37 and 38 respectively. Rishabh Pant too got out cheaply as India found themselves wanting at 186/6. That's when Shardul Thakur and Washington Sundar got together and turned the tide against Australia. While Thakur counter attacked and scored his maiden half-century, Sundar followed suit and did that on debut. Their 123-run 7th wicket stand helped India finish at 336, allowing the hosts to just secure a lead of 33 runs. Australia is 21/0 at stumps and have extended the lead to 54.

After being reduced to 186/6, Washington Sundar & Shardul Thakur come to the rescue with a 123-run 7th wicket stand.

Former Australian skipper Greg Chappell has penned an open letter to Aussie cricketer Tim Paine, advising him to learn from his past mistakes and uphold the highest standards in the game even under extreme pressure.
In his letter, published in the Sydney Morning Herald, the former Indian coach&nbsp;wrote, abuse is not acceptable in any workplace or talk, and it is cheap.&nbsp;
Urging Paine to set better examples for youngsters, Chappell&nbsp;said that abuse displays weakness of character.

BCCI will only deal directly with the state associations and at no time will have any communication with player agents or managers: IPL COO

With the&nbsp;mini-auction ahead of the 14th edition of the Indian Premier League inching closer, franchises looking to retain players must complete the process by January 20.&nbsp;In a mail sent to the state associations, IPL COO and&nbsp;interim BCCI CEO Hemang Amin explained the whole process through which an Indian player may register to be able to play in the 2021 edition of the cash-rich league. He added that&nbsp;this procedure does not apply to any Indian player who has an ongoing IPL contract that may be extended prior to&nbsp;IPL 2021&nbsp;Player Auction.&nbsp;BCCI will only deal directly with the state associations and at no time will have any communication with player agents or managers.&nbsp;

It's the shot that I play and I have played it very well in the past. So, it's something that I really back myself to do all the time: Rohit

After being criticised for getting out playing a rash shot in the first innings of the Brisbane Test, Rohit&nbsp;Sharma&nbsp;has come out in his defence. India's Test vice captain said that&nbsp;it's the shot that he plays and has played very well in the past. It's something that Rohit really backs himself to do all the time.

Only 54 overs could be bowled on day 2 as India were 62/2 at stumps, still trailing Australia by 307 runs.

Rain played spoil sport on day 2 of the Brisbane Test allowing only 54 overs to be bowled. India was 62/2 at stumps, still trailing Australia by 307 runs. Earlier,&nbsp;Cameron Green and Tim Paine looked threatening and took Australia past 300 quickly. But that's when an inexperienced Indian bowling line-up fought back with 3 quick wickets. Australia went from being 311/5 to being reduced to 315/8. Aussie tail wagged as last 2 wickets put together 54 runs before India finally bowled the hosts out for 369. Shardul Thakur, Washington Sundar and T Natarajan picked 3 wickets each.&nbsp; In reply, Shubman Gill was dismissed cheaply but Rohit Sharma looked solid at the other end. He however, threw away his wicket for 44. Rahane and Pujara were at the crease when the downpour began, forcing early stumps.

Baroda skipper Krunal, who was playing the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy has left the tournament Bio-bubble to be with his family.

Indian all-rounders&nbsp;Hardik&nbsp;Pandya and brother Krunal&nbsp;Pandya's&nbsp;father, Himanshu&nbsp;Pandya&nbsp;passed away due to a cardiac arrest on Saturday. Baroda skipper Krunal, who was playing the Syed&nbsp;Mushtaq&nbsp;Ali Trophy, left the Bio-bubble to be with his family and hence, can't play the domestic T20 tournament anymore. His brother Hardik&nbsp;returned to India last month after completing the limited overs&nbsp;series vs Australia.&nbsp;

Resuming day 2 of the Brisbane Test at 274/5, Cameron Green and Tim Paine looked threatening and took Australia past 300 quickly. But that's when an inexperienced Indian bowling line-up fought back with 3 quick wickets. Australia went from being 311/5 to being reduced to 315/8.

Though Arjun claimed his maiden first-class wicket in his very first over but finished with figures of 1/34 from his 3 overs.

While one Tendulkar&nbsp;finished his first-class career vs Haryana, another started his journey to the limelight against the same side. Arjun&nbsp;Tendulkar&nbsp;made his senior team debut for Mumbai&nbsp;as he played his first game of the Syed&nbsp;Mushtaq&nbsp;Ali Trophy on Friday. Defending a low total of 143, Tendulkar&nbsp;junior claimed his maiden wicket within the first over itself, when he dismissed&nbsp;Chaitanya Bishnoi&nbsp;for 4. But he proved expensive there on and finished with figures of 1/34 from 3 overs&nbsp;as Haryana&nbsp;beat Mumbai&nbsp;by 8 wickets.

An inexperienced Indian bowling line-up impressed on day 1 of the Brisbane Test but Australia still managed to have a slight edge over India.

An inexperienced Indian bowling line-up impressed on day 1 of the Brisbane Test but Australia still ended with their noses slightly ahead at 274/5. Tim Paine's decision to bat first seemed to have backfired as the hosts lost both openers with just 17 runs on the board. Steve Smith too fell for 36 but that's when Marnus Labuschagne dropped anchor. He made India pay for 2 dropped catches and smashed his 5th Test ton. Debutant T Natarajan brought India back into the contest with 2 quick wickets but skipper Paine and Cameron Green made sure there wasn't any further hiccup as the duo scored 61 for the 6th wicket. India would need early inroads on day 2 to have their grip back on Australia.

If India's troubles with a growing number of injuries on the tour weren't enough, Navdeep&nbsp;Saini&nbsp;now joined that list as he was troubled with a groin strain on

If India's troubles with a growing number of injuries on the tour weren't enough, Navdeep&nbsp;Saini&nbsp;now joined that list as he was troubled with a groin strain on Day 1 of the Brisbane Test. After bowling a ball short of 8 overs in the morning session, Saini&nbsp;hobbled&nbsp;off after complaining of pain in his groin. Team&nbsp;India are anyway without all their front-line bowlers and an injury to Saini&nbsp;is like a body blow as BCCI confirmed that a team of doctors are monitoring the fast bowler.&nbsp;

A women from Lahore had alleged that Babar had sexually exploited her after making false promises of marriage and even forced her to undergo an abortion.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam&nbsp;has found himself in the middle of a difficult situation. An FIR has been filed against him after an additional session court in Lahore ordered the police to file a case over a sexual harassment complaint. A women from Lahore had alleged that&nbsp;Babar&nbsp;had sexually exploited&nbsp;her after making false promises of marriage and even forced her to undergo an abortion. She had filed a complaint in November 2020.&nbsp;Earlier, another additional sessions judge&nbsp;had ordered Babar and his family not to harass the women, who had alleged that she was getting threat calls to withdraw the case.

T Natarajan's fairy tale continued as he became the first Indian player to make his International debut across all three formats during the same tour.

An injury-hit Team India arrived in Brisbane with their entire bowling line-up different as to what they played in the 1st Test of the series but skipper Ajinkya&nbsp;Rahane&nbsp;quoted it as an opportunity for others. T Natarajan's&nbsp;fairy tale continued as he became&nbsp;the first Indian player to make his International debut across all three formats during the same tour. Apart from him, Washington Sundar too got the Test cap and Shardul&nbsp;Thakur&nbsp;made his return to the whites as Ravichandran&nbsp;Ashwin and&nbsp;Jasprit&nbsp;Bumrah&nbsp;missed out due to injuries. Interestingly, India had never used more then 17 players in an away series but they have played 20 this time around.&nbsp;

CricBait | #ThunderDownUnder: Playing XI to be revealed in the morning as Team India struggles with injuries. What should be the strategy?
Yash&nbsp;Chawla looks for answers with Nic&nbsp;Savage, Khyati Patel &amp; Lav&nbsp;Vaid.

Contrary to the trend of announcing Playing XI a day before a Test match, Team India decided to play it safe and deferred naming their troop for the final Test in Brisbane vs Australia. Coach Vikram&nbsp;Rathour&nbsp;confirmed that the team won't be announced as they are monitoring the fitness of many players. Without naming any, Rathour&nbsp;confirmed that the players will be given as much time as possible to get fit before the Test match starts. With the management fighting against time to get the troops ready for one last challenge, Jasprit&nbsp;Bumrah&nbsp;and Ravichandran&nbsp;Ashwin&nbsp;are still in contention to play as the outcome of the match will decide where the Border-Gavaskar&nbsp;trophy goes after this series. Keeping&nbsp;India's poor record in Brisbane in mind, the Team Management will be desperate to field the best possible XI in what could be one of the toughest challenge on this tour which has been nothing short of a roller coaster&nbsp;of emotions.
