On the opening day of the third Test at the Holkar Stadium in Indore on March 1, Australian spinners dominated as Team India was bowled out for 109 in their first innings.
After the introduction of spin into the assault by skipper Steve Smith, the game shifted in Australia's advantage. By removing Rohit Sharma, Matthew Kuhnemann gave the visitors the opening wicket and amassed a five-wicket haul. Nathan Lyon, a master spinner, claimed three wickets, while Todd Murphy also claimed the priceless wicket of Virat Kohli.
While all of the Indian hitters failed to perform, Kohli led the team with 22 runs, followed by Shubman Gill with 21. The hosts were bowled out for 109 in 33.2 overs, which infuriated the fans.
