Ahmedabad: Australian opener Travis Head, who was rushing towards a century, fell to a clever delivery by Axar Patel. With this, Axar Patel also completed 50 wickets in Test cricket. Aksar became the first player to score 500 runs in the first 12 Tests and take 50 wickets. Aksar also managed to become the fifth player to own this achievement.
The incident happened in the 59th over of the Australian second innings. Travis Head’s plan was to play the normal ball as cover. But the ball hit the stumps on the unturned pitch. The player scored 90 runs. Travis Head’s innings consisted of 10 fours and two sixes from 163 balls.
Meanwhile, in the third session, with the Aussies leading by 84 runs, both the captains declared the match a draw. India won the Border-Gavaskar series (2-1) with the final Test tied. India won the series for the fourth time in a row. Meanwhile, India secured the final ticket in the World Test Championship after Sri Lanka lost against New Zealand today. Therefore, the last day of the India-Australia Test was almost boring.
