Talking Points:

  • Australia's tactic to sweep against spinners on a pitch keeping low
  • Batting in India in the third innings - a most perilous task
  • The Smith sweep to Ashwin, and Labuschagne playing the ball off the pitch
  • Ashwin and Jadeja - and the subtle variation in lengths across innings
  • Could Australia have used their feet and lofted more in the second innings?
  • Ashwin's mesmeric spell on the first morning
  • Nathan Lyon's drift and turn from around the wicket
  • How the Axar-Ashwin partnership tilted the scales
