But thanks for your company. On behalf of the entire ESPNCricinfo team, as well as Sreshth Shah, Himanshu Agrawal and Chandan Duorah it is goodbye from Ahmedabad.

India series winners. The two teams will next meet in a Test in the WTC final in England in June. India captain Rohit Sharma : “It was fantastic. Right from the word go. It was exciting, all the Test matches there was something in it for everyone to watch.

We understand the importance of the series and definitely understand the importance of the opposition. After playing good cricket for 40-odd days we stand here with a result we are quite happy with. There were challenges thrown up but we responded to them. With the result 2-1, the first two Tests, we knew how important it was to start the series.

I think the Delhi Test match was something I’m really proud of because we were very much behind the game and to comeback from the situation that we did shows a lot of character and a lot of fight.” Joint Player of the series to R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja,

  1. Ashwin: “It’s been a great journey together.
  2. We wouldn’t be the same without the other.
  3. He gives me a lot of freedom to be creative on the field with the ball.
  4. Credit to him.
  5. I thought he bowled beautifully in the Delhi Test.
  6. That’s why we’re here.” Jadeja: “We’re always talking about the wicket, what field we should have to particular batters.

We’re always talking and discussing. I’m not happy with my batting in the series. I missed on a few occasions. Especially in this game. Hopefully I’ll work harder and more focussed on my batting for the next series.” Player of the match is Virat Kohli : “The expectations that I have for myself as a player are more important to me.

I think in Test cricket I wasn’t able to play with my tempo and template that I have played with for the last 10 years for awhile now. So that was the one thing I was trying to do. I felt like I was batting really well from the first innings in Nagpur. But we focussed more on batting as long as possible for the team.

I did that for periods but not to the capability that I have done in the past. From that perspective I was disappointed but there was belief there that I was playing well and if I got an opportunity on a decent wicket then I can make a big one.” Australia captain Steve Smith : “It did end slowly.

  1. That was a pretty flat wicket that one.
  2. It was a really enjoyable series to be a part of.
  3. The boys had a great time over here.
  4. The hospitality has been outstanding and the crowds have been amazing.
  5. It was a really well fought series.
  6. I think we started to play a lot better as the series went on.
  7. That hour of madness I suppose in Delhi really cost us in that game.

But I think coming back from that in Indore we fought back really nicely and this game as well. Unfortunately the wicket was probably a little bit too flat for a result in the end.” India coach Rahul Dravid on Star : “It was a really hard fought series, there were moments where we were put under extreme pressure by a really good cricket team and we responded.

Whenever we needed someone to step up and put in a special performance, we found it. Rohit led the way in the first Test with a brilliant hundred and it was bookended by Virat Kohli’s brilliant 186. In the middle we had performances from Ashwin, Jadeja, Axar, Shubman there. I’ve probably missed out a few.

I think our fight stood out. Whenever we were under pressure with our backs to the wall we had to respond and we always found that. It’s one of the heartening things about coaching this team. People want to stand up and take responsibility. We just qualified at lunchtime today.

  • I wasn’t counting my chickens before they hatched.
  • We’ll celebrate this for starters.
  • It is going to be a challenge.
  • There’s going to be a lot of logistics involved given the IPL final is only a week before the WTC final.
  • We’ll think about it.” Shubman Gill on Star : ” is always on his mark.
  • He tests your patience so much.

Especially when I was batting to him on day three and the first session was quite challenging for me and Rohit. Just the areas that he bowls. He doesn’t give much to the batter for someone who is consistently bowling outside off stump, he doesn’t give half volleys or short balls.

That’s quite amazing. As a batter it’s quite difficult to score runs off him.” Nathan Lyon on Star : “It’s been a tough challenge. We knew it was going to be tough but it’s been rewarding. I think our group can take a lot out of it. There’s areas where we can improve but some proud moments along the way.

was a pretty tough surface. There wasn’t a lot in it. It can be quite challenging but it’s up to us bowlers get the guys caught on the crease and trying to get them to play false shots. A totally different surface to the first three wickets.” 3.21pm No we’re done now.

Australia can technically declare 10 minutes early. The umpires agree to call it off. Handshakes all-round. The 4th Test ends in a draw and India win the series 2-1. India too good. They deserve to retain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Australia will kick themselves for their collapse in Delhi that cost them a rare chance at a series win in India.

But India’s spinners were far too good in the first two Test matches. The two teams will meet again in the World Test Championship final at the Oval in England in June. Neil: “India should’ve sneakily gone for the 84 in 16 overs because I assume Australia “declared” to lose 2 overs for change of innings?” Rohit joked that he would call for the light roller but they ended it by mutual agreement.

  1. Otherwise Australia would have kept batting obviously.
  2. Vijaykumar: “I can imagine Chris Broad sharpening his knives before writing up the pitch report ” It will be interesting to see how this is rated following Indore.
  3. Only 20 wickets fell to bowlers in 5 days.
  4. Gill to Labuschagne, no run 82kph, tossed up on off, he defends on the front foot We’ll be done in three overs end of over 78 1 run AUS: 175/2 CRR: 2.24 Steven Smith 10 (59b 2×4) Marnus Labuschagne 63 (212b 7×4) Cheteshwar Pujara 1-0-1-0 Shubman Gill 1-0-1-0 Nanda: “The Indian wicket-keeper should say “Well bowled Warnie” after every Puajara delivery.

  • Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne also knocking out the deliveries.15:06 (IST) Mar 13 Labuschagne, Smith solid | Last 30 minutes of the game! The odd-ball still jumping and spinning but Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith have pretty watchful and have not put their guards down.

Getting the odd boundaries here and there as well and getting runs under their belt. The drinks are on the field now and players and umpires will have a breather. AUS 173/2 after 75 overs, lead by 82 runs 14:46 (IST) Mar 13 Labuschagne and Smith settle in after the break! Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith get on with their jobs after the Tea break.

Travis Head (90) was the lone man to fall in the session as he missed out on a well-deserved ton. Axar Patel got the only wicket as Australia go into the break at 158 for 2 taking a lead of 67 runs. Marnus Labuschagne (56*) and Steve Smith (0*) head back to the break unbeaten.14:04 (IST) Mar 13 Bharat grasses another one! A straightforward chance put down and KS Bharat is the culprit once again behind the stumps.

His first of the series! A well-compiled knock from Labuschagne. His previous highest score in the series was 49 and had to face some tough conditions in the first three Tests. But here in Ahmedabad, he has looked really good in the second innings. Gets to his fifty with an easy single off Umesh Yadav after cracking him for a boundary, previous ball.

AUS 150/1 after 57.2 overs, lead by 59 runs 13:37 (IST) Mar 13 Head in 80’s | Labuschagne in 40’s Three boundaries in the last three overs as both Travis Head (86*) and Marnus Labuschagne (44*) look at ease. There is also not much happening in the Indian camp either. A few oohs and aahs in around the bat but nothing threatening for both the batters.

Ravindra Jadeja and Umesh Yadav operating for India at the moment. AUS 140/1 after 56 overs, lead by 49 runs 13:15 (IST) Mar 13 Travis Head and Labuschagne hold firm Another hour goes in favour of Australia. Travis Head (76*) and Marnus Labuschagne (37*) have now added 109 runs and have faced 243 balls together on Day 5.

  5. AUS 123/1 after 51 overs, lead by 32 runs 12:54 (IST) Mar 13 100-run partnership comes up between Head and Labuschagne A terrific partnership this has turned out to be between Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne.

They have faced 219 balls together so far and just not given anything to the India bowlers. India needed wickets to push for a win but Head and Labuschagne have shown terrific defiance on the final day. From here, until there is now a dramatic Australian batting collapse – which seems unlikely – the Test is headed for a draw.12:46 (IST) Mar 13 100 comes up for Australia in the second innings! 12:42 (IST) Mar 13 Second successive WTC Final for #TeamIndia 12:41 (IST) Mar 13 Australia cut the 91-run deficit to go ahead of India in the second session on Day 5 AUS 93/1 in second innings, lead by 2 runs | Travis Head 53* | Marnus Labuschagne 34* 12:35 (IST) Mar 13 A superb fifty from opener Travis Head.

An innings of defiance and determination. Was not included in the team for the first Test but since then he hasn’t looked back. Knocks of 43 and 49* in the second and the third Test in testing conditions and now he gets to his first fifty of the series. Making great use of the excellent batting conditions.

Head notches up his 13th Test half-century off 112 balls. AUS 88/1, trail by 3 runs 12:33 (IST) Mar 13 Five overs into the post lunch session and Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne continue from where they left off. The risk-free approach still their from the Aussies.

Travis Head (45*) and Marnus Labuschagne (22*) are back in the middle to resume Australia innings after the Lunch break. Ashwin to start the proceedings for India.

AUS 73/1 after 36 overs, trail by 18 runs 12:15 (IST) Mar 13 So, It will be Australia vs India in the #WTC23 final after New Zealand pull off a sensational last-ball victory over Sri Lanka in 1st Test in Christchurch Sri Lanka needed to win the two-Test series against New Zealand 2-0 but they have lost the first Test.

So India qualifies for the World Test Championship final for the second time in a row.12:12 (IST) Mar 13 JUST IN – INDIA QUALIFY FOR WORLD TEST CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL AS NEW ZEALAND BEAT SRI LANKA BY 2 WICKETS IN A LAST-OVER THRILLER.11:50 (IST) Mar 13 Morning session in a nutshell Australian batters adopted a risk-free approach to reach 73 for 1 at lunch on the final day of the fourth Test against India as the match meandered towards a dull draw.

Australia still need 18 runs to erase the first innings deficit of 91 runs after India scored 571 in their first essay. Australia had score 480 in their first effort. With Sri Lanka not likely to win the opening Test against New Zealand in Christchurch, the Indian team will be a happy unit, going into lunch as they are all set to enter the World Test Championship final.

  • With the Motera track showing no signs of wear and tear, a result looked improbable even after end of day four but the academic interest was whether India can effect a collapse on day five.
  • However there was no such drama during the fifth morning as Travis Head (45 batting, 96 balls) continued his good form while Marnus Labuschagne (22 batting, 85 balls) was happy to play an ultra-defensive game with no result in sight.

Australia had no chance of forcing a win and their batting unit was justified as they played for a draw on a good batting track. There were not many deliveries that turned and despite their best batter Usman Khawaja’s absence due to a leg injury, Australians didn’t break any sweat.

  1. Matthew Kuhnemann (6) did the job given to him as he played the tricky overs in the fourth evening and would consider himself distinctly unlucky to be adjudged leg-before off Ashwin.
  2. Head on his part didn’t play too many attacking shots save one lofted six over long off Ashwin’s bowling.
  3. He also had five fours in his kitty.11:44 (IST) Mar 13 The Head-Labuschagne defiance! 11:33 (IST) Mar 13 Australia 73/1 at Lunch on Day 5 | Trail by 18 That’s Lunch on Day 5 as Travis Head (45*) and Marnus Labuschagne (22*) bat out the session to frustrate India.

India needed wickets to press for victory but both Head and Labuschagne have denied India any success. Umesh Yadav completes the final over before the break. Head and Labuschagne added 59 runs for the second wicket and faced 152 balls in the session. The only wicket that fell was of nightwatchman Matthew Kuhnemann (6) who was trapped in front by Ashwin in the fifth over of the day.11:29 (IST) Mar 13 Unsuccessful review from India! A review out of desperation from Rohit Sharma and co.

Travis Head presses forward to defend the ball and Ashwin hits his front pad. He was a long way forward and umpire Nitin Menon ruled it in favour of the batter. Ball-tracking does confirm that the delivery is just clipping the top of the leg stump. The on-field decision stays as Head survives a review.11:19 (IST) Mar 13 Head and Labuschagne solid A lot of oohs and aahs around the wicket but India still in search of a second breakthrough.

Travis Head (41*) and Marnus Labuschagne (21*) have done really well and have produced a gritty performance in this morning session. Till now, they have faced 134 balls together and looked quite decent. Bowling change for India now as Umesh Yadav comes into the attack for the first time on Day 5.

  • AUS 61/1 after 33 overs, trail by 23 11:11 (IST) Mar 13 20 minutes to go for Lunch! Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne have now batted close to 21 overs together and have added 51 runs for the second wicket.
  • The odd ball has been turning but both the Aussie batters have been watchful.
  • Can India get another one before the break! Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel operating at the moment.

AUS 65/1 after 31 overs, trail by 26 10:53 (IST) Mar 13 Woah! Head goes down town! SIX! Terrific footwork from Travis Head as he dances down the track and slams Ashwin for a maximum. First big hit of the day as Head takes on Ashwin.50 also comes up for Australia with that cracking strike.

Australia now trail by 41 runs.10:47 (IST) Mar 13 Pitch now aiding spinners a lot more! A probing over from R Ashwin. The ball has started to do a lot more off the pitch. Travis Head bets beaten thrice in the over on the front-foot as well as on the back-foot. A maiden from Ashwin. AUS 42/1 after 24 overs, trail by 49 10:39 (IST) Mar 13 FOUR! Terrific footwork from Marnus Labuschagne as he charges down the track and whacks Ashwin delivery to the long-on fence.

This is the second time Labuschagne has come down and gone aerial against Ashwin. Taking on the challenge from the ace India spinner. AUS 37/1, trail by 54 runs 10:34 (IST) Mar 13 First hour of play done on Day 5! Travis Head (18*) and Marnus Labuschagne (9*) steady for Australia as India continue their search for wickets.

  • DRINKS are on the field now and the players and umpires will have a breather on a sunny Monday morning in Ahmedabad.
  • AUS 33/1 after 21 overs, trail by 58 runs 10:29 (IST) Mar 13 Axar comes in, change of ends for Jadeja Another throw of dice from skipper Rohit Sharma as Axar Patel comes into the attack.

Change of ends for Ravindra Jadeja as Ashwin gets a breather. AUS 26/1 after 20 overs 10:25 (IST) Mar 13 Head and Labuschagne steady Every now and then, the odd ball is doing something off the pitch but both the Aussie batters Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne have been alert and pro-active.

They are getting the long strides forward and looking to play most of the balls in front. Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja continue to ask the questions. AUS 26/1 after 19 overs, trail by 65 10:13 (IST) Mar 13 Bowling change for India as Jadeja replaces Shami The is a rough spot outside the off stump of the right-hander and R Ashwin is getting close to the spot.

Gets a couple of balls to turn in against Marnus Labuschagne but he keeps them away. Bowling change for India now as Ravindra Jadeja comes in place of Mohammed Shami. Looks like it will be spin from both ends now for India. AUS 20/1 after 15 overs 10:05 (IST) Mar 13 Stat attack – R Ashwin has managed to dismiss all the 15 Australian batters at least once in this series.10:04 (IST) Mar 13 Ashwin, Shami keep it tight 7 overs have been bowling since the play has started as India kept things tight.14 runs scored by the Aussies and they have lost nightwatchman Matthew Kuhnemann in the process.

Has India ever won a Test match in Australia?

Series summary – Cricketing contests between the two nations have usually been of high intensity. The importance of the series is also fuelled by Australia’s desire to beat India in a Test match series in India, which, until their victory in the 2004–05 series, they had not done so since 1969–70.

  • India has developed a reputation of being particularly difficult to beat at home, having lost only two Test series since 1986–87.
  • Conversely, India had never managed to win a Test series in Australia until 2018–19 series, after which they continued their winning streak in the 2020-21 series, thereby retaining the trophy for two editions outside home.

The competitiveness of the series played between the two sides is also reflected in the fact that in both 2000–01 and 2007–08, it was India who ended Australia’s runs of 16 consecutive Test wins. Matches in India are commonly described with labels like final frontier or iconic event,

  1. The Test series held in India in 2000–01 was labelled the final frontier by Steve Waugh and it lived up to its reputation; it had the closest result in decades with India overpowering the mighty Australians in the final session of the final Test at Chennai.
  2. The series also gave the cricketing world three champion cricketers in Hayden, Harbhajan and Laxman who were relatively unknown or under-performing till then.

They were the cornerstones of the series and the duels between Laxman & Australian bowlers on the one hand; and Harbhajan & Hayden on the other are often termed the most engrossing player rivalries in a Test series of cricket. The series was played in the backdrop of the death of legendary Sir Donald Bradman who was quoted as saying that he was very much looking forward to the series and had high expectations of both the teams.

How to draw Test cricket?

Draw – The result of a match is a “draw” if a match is concluded, as defined in Law 16, without being a win or a tie. A draw therefore occurs when one or both of the teams have not completed their innings by the scheduled end of play. In matches where the number of overs is not limited, therefore, a team unable to win may be able to ‘save the draw’ by either avoiding being all-out if they are batting (i.e.

by having two or more batsmen left at the end of play who are ”), or, if bowling, by slowing down the scoring of the batting team. The match is then drawn regardless of the total of runs accumulated by either side. Some league competitions allow for a “winning draw” (and therefore also a “losing draw”), allocating more points to one of the teams based on factors such as run rates or overall runs scored.

The official result is still a draw.

WTC Final: Australia beats India by 209 runs to win World Test Championship, first team to win all ICC titles – WTC Final: With the World Test Championship win, Australia became the first team to win all ICC titles at least once while India lost its fourth consecutive ICC tournament final since 2014.

  • PLAYER OF THE MATCH – TRAVIS HEAD Lot of hard work over the two years. It’s been nice. That’s been the approach for two years. Said through the week that I want to be able to be proactive. I was tested throughout the innings. It was nice to be out there for a period of time with Smudge (Steve Smith). Amazing week. Amazing Test from him and what we’ve come to expect (from him) here in England. Hope it’s a big couple of months from him. And I’ve always said that it feels like all the plans go to him, all the attention he draws, and I can just go about my work. Nice to spend some time out with him. I’ve always had the confidence. It’s about going out there and expressing that. It took me some time and everyone goes through that. I’ve always been open to change, open to learning. I’ve bedded down somewhat of a blueprint. It’s not always going to work. It’s nice to work that out in such a big game and hopefully continues in the next couple of months. Lot of what-ifs going to bed last night. We’ve come across such moments through the two years where we’ve had to grind it out. We were able to do that again today.

    Who won the 4th Ashes 2023?

    Australia retain Ashes with 4th Test draw after rain plays spoilsport on final day at Manchester : The fourth Test match of the Ashes 2023 series between England and Australia, held at Emirates Old Trafford, ended in a draw due to persistent rain on the final day.

    1. The result meant that Australia retained the Ashes, having come into this game with a 2-1 lead.
    2. This is the third straight time that Australia will be retaining the Ashes having never lost a series since 2015.
    3. Australia have dominated the proceedings since their 2017/18 Ashes victory and only drew the series once in 2019 in England.

    England on the other hand would feel hard done by the draw given they only needed 5 wickets in the final day to win the Test match and score whatever runs Australia could possibly have taken the lead of. Australia were on the backfoot and were vocal about hoping for rain given their disadvantageous position ahead of Day 5 of the Test match.

    England who have grown into the series as the day’s progressed had started the match on a high note, bowling out Australia for a modest total of 317 runs in just over a day’s play. In response, England put up a mammoth total of 592 runs in their first innings. Zak Crawley was the star of the show, scoring a magnificent 189.

    His innings was marked by aggressive stroke play, what has been touted as Bazball since the appointment of Brendon McCullum as the Test head coach in 2022. He was well supported by the rest of the English batting line-up – Ben Stokes, Moeen Ali, and Joe Root who made valuable contributions to help England amass such a huge total.

    Jonny Bairstow starred on Day 3 of the Test match, hitting a rapid 99* silencing his critics over his poor form in the series. As England took to the field for their second innings, they were buoyed by their commanding position in the match. The bowlers started off brilliantly, taking four early Australian wickets and putting the visitors on the back foot.

    However, Marnus Labuschagne stood tall amidst the ruins, scoring a gritty century to keep Australia in the game. His innings was marked by patience and resilience, as he weathered the English bowling attack and kept the scoreboard ticking. However, the final day of the match was marred by incessant rain, which washed out any chances of a result.

    England, needing five wickets to win, were left frustrated as the weather played spoilsport. Despite the draw, there were several positives for England to take from the match, including their dominant batting performance and the effectiveness of their bowlers. Australia, on the other hand, would be relieved to have escaped with a draw, thanks largely to Labuschagne’s century.

    They would also be pleased to have retained the Ashes, despite the challenging conditions and a spirited performance from England. Edited By: Kingshuk Kusari Published On: Jul 23, 2023 : Australia retain Ashes with 4th Test draw after rain plays spoilsport on final day at Manchester

    Is Test match only 4 days?

    Playing time – A standard day of Test cricket consists of three sessions of two hours each, the break between sessions being 40 minutes for lunch and 20 minutes for tea. However, the times of sessions and intervals may be altered in certain circumstances: if bad weather or a change of innings occurs close to a scheduled break, the break may be taken immediately; if there has been a loss of playing time, for example because of bad weather, the session times may be adjusted to make up the lost time; if the batting side is nine wickets down at the scheduled tea break, then the interval may be delayed until either 30 minutes has elapsed or the team is all out ; the final session may be extended by up to 30 minutes if 90 or more overs have not been bowled in that day’s play (subject to any reduction for adverse weather); the final session may be extended by 30 minutes (except on the 5th day) if the umpires believe the result can be decided within that time.

    1. Today, Test matches are scheduled to be played across five consecutive days.
    2. However, in the early days of Test cricket, matches were played for three or four days.
    3. England hosted Ireland at Lord’s on 1st June 2023 for a four-day test.
    4. Four-day Test matches were last played in 1973, between New Zealand and Pakistan,

    Until the 1980s, it was usual to include a ‘rest day,’ often a Sunday. There have also been ‘ Timeless Tests ‘, which have no predetermined maximum time. In 2005, Australia played a match scheduled for six days against a World XI, which the ICC sanctioned as an official Test match, though the match reached a conclusion on the fourth day.

    1. In October 2017, the ICC approved a request for a four-day Test match, between South Africa and Zimbabwe, which started on 26 December 2017 and ended on the second day, 27 December.
    2. The ICC trialed the four-day Test format until the 2019 Cricket World Cup,
    3. In December 2019, Cricket Australia were considering playing four-day Tests, subject to consensus with other Test nations.

    Later the same month, the ICC considered the possibility of making four-day Test matches mandatory for the ICC World Test Championship from 2023. There have been attempts by the ICC, the sport’s governing body, to introduce day-night Test matches. In 2012, the International Cricket Council passed playing conditions that allowed for the staging of day-night Test matches.

    Is Test match ever tied?

    Tied Test Score equality in the longest international cricket matches A Tied Test is a match in which the side batting second is bowled out in the fourth, with scores level. This is a very rare result; only two have occurred in the 2,494 Tests played since 1877.

    • The first was in 1960 and the second in 1986.
    • On both occasions, the aggregate scores of both sides (teams) were equal at the conclusion of play and the side batting last had its final innings: 10 batsmen had been dismissed or, from the perspective of the side bowling, 10 wickets had been taken.
    • In other words, after four completed innings, with each innings ending either by a declaration or 10 wickets having fallen, the runs for both teams were exactly the same.

    In cricket, a tie is distinct from a, a much more common result in Tests, which occurs when play concludes without victory by either team (except where a Test has been formally abandoned). Both tied Tests involved the, Both ended in the last possible over of play on the last day with a ball to spare, meaning that within the space of several minutes were possible: a win for the batting side, a win for the fielding side, a draw or,
