India’s first innings collapsed for 185 runs
The Indian team, which came to bat first after winning the toss, had a bad start. The first blow to the Indian team came in the form of KL Rahul (4), who was caught by Sam Constas at square leg off the ball of Mitchell Starc. Then the second opener Yashasvi Jaiswal (10) also played Scott Boland’s ball to third slip. After this, Shubman Gill (20) played bravely with Kohli on the wicket, but before lunch, while trying to play Nathan Lyon’s ball forward, he was caught by Steve Smith at slip. There was absolutely no need for this shot just before lunch.

After lunch, Virat Kohli was out once again for playing the off stump ball forcibly. Kohli (17) was dismissed by Scott Boland at the hands of Beau Webster after scoring 17 runs. Kohli has been out many times in this series before for playing the ball forcibly on the off side.

Rohit-Akash Deep out, Krishna-Gil enter
Rohit Sharma decided to keep himself out of this match. Shubman Gill has got a chance in place of Rohit. Apart from this, fast bowler Akash Deep remained out of this match due to back pain. Prasidh Krishna, who is playing his third Test, has got a chance in place of Akash. Akash has taken five wickets in two Tests so far in Brisbane and Melbourne. He was a bit unlucky in not taking many wickets, as many catches were missed from his bowling during the two matches.

Debut of 31 year old player for Australia
It has been decided to drop Mitchell Marsh and include Beau Webster in the team for the final Test match to be held at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. Marsh scored 73 runs in this series at an average of 10.42. The 31-year-old Webster has scored runs at an average of 57.10 in first-class cricket since March 2022, while also taking 81 wickets at an average of 31.70. Mitchell Starc will play in Sydney

Why was Marsh out?
In the last three Test matches, Marsh was given only 13 overs. Marsh, 33, suffered a back complaint after the first Test in Perth, but the Australian management has since insisted there are no fitness concerns for him. But Marsh had to struggle with the bat. He scored 9, 5, 4, 2 and 0 in the last five innings, making it clear that he was in trouble.
