Sam Konstas threw the Indians off with his unorthodox approach in his first innings, but then found out Test cricket runs are harder to get than headlines.

Tough decisions might need to be made for India's slumping Test cricket team in desperate need of a reboot after falling away in Australia.

India's cricket board has capped the amount of time players can spend with their families on tour after a string of Test defeats including a 3-1 drubbing in Australia this month.

Former India captain Virat Kohli was recently featured in Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 where he scored 190 runs in five Test matches.

India have been urged to drop superstar batter Virat Kohli for their upcoming tour of England following his struggles in Australia. Kohli, one of the best players of his generation, has suffered a significant dip in form in recent years and continued to struggle during the recent Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

India were nine wickets down with another 32 runs away from staving a follow-on. After most of the three days gone in the rain, Australia could win the game only by dismissing India early and try to win the Test with the series hanging 1-1.
