If you make all sorts of gestures to indicate that you are "letting your bat do the talking", doesn't that then mean that you aren't letting your bat do the talking, even if it's true that your mouth isn't exactly moving either?

Lyon 2/3.

Including Kohli.

India 4/55.

Lyon strikes !!

After Mitchell Starc claimed Lokesh Rahul for a duck and Josh Hazlewood dismissed Cheteshwa Pujara for 4, India fought back.

Virat Kohli and Murali Vijay added 35 for the third wicket. However, Nathan Lyon displayed his worth with both wickets.

India 4/62. Lyon has 2/3 from 5 overs.

The Aussies only need to be bowling a tight line on the last day and they win. Let the bounce get them. Or lack of it at times. The two at the crease might last a while but the rest won't.

8/140. Lyon has 3/39 and Starc, 3/46.

Wicket for Cummins.

1 wicket away from 1-1.

Cummins (2/25) seals the win.

What's needed now is fast, bouncy, bowlers' pitches.
Last year, the MCG pitch was terrible. Those sorts of pitches do not suit the team (though if they are too terrible in that way then a draw results).

Wonderful effort by the team! Could have won the first test with a bit of luck. Makes for an exciting last two tests against the Number 1 team in the world.
