NEW DELHI :India hammered Australia inside three days for the second time in a fortnight to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy on Sunday and are on the verge of qualifying for the World Test Championship final in June.
Captain Rohit Sharma made 31 and Cheteshwar Pujara, playing his 100th test, contributed the same number of runs, including the boundary that sealed victory. Only Head and Marnus Labuschagne managed double digits as the Australian batters capitulated to the guile of India's spinners. Their collapse on Sunday was reminiscent of their second innings meltdown in Nagpur where they were all out for 91 losing all 10 wickets in one session.
"I thought 260 was a decent score on that first day wicket batted quite well," Cummins said, referring to their first-innings 263.
