Australia proved their dominance in the third Test match from Day 1 wherein they first bowled out the hosts for a score of 109 and then again at 163 which left just 76 runs for the visitors to win the match with more than three days of play still left.
The Indian batsmen were not able to pick the Australian spinners from Day 1 of the third Test match and this has been Team India's problem throughout the series.

The main focus now will shift towards the fourth Test match in Ahmedabad as the loss in Indore has left no option for Team India but to win the match if they want to seal their position in the World Test Championship final. Australia, on the other hand, has already qualified for the big short-format event to be held in June this year at the Kennington Oval ground in London.
Team India are already 2-1 up in the four-match series and have retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for a record fourth time in a row.
