I want to apologise for the way I went about things yesterday... my leadership wasn't good enough, I let the pressure of the game get to me, said Australia captain

A frustrated Australian captain Tim Paine started sledging, especially Ashwin. However, England former captain Michael Vaughan was not happy with his behaviour.

Paine dropped two catches of Rishabh Pant, who made a fluent 97 and raised hopes of an Indian win, and then dropped one of Hanuma Vihari, who remained unbeaten on 23

Vihari remained unbeaten on 23 off 161 balls and batted out more than 42 overs alongside Ravichandran Ashwin to save the Test match

Ashwin said the confidence gained from productive net sessions helped him finally come good against Australia as he and Vihari saved the third Test

For Vihari, it was one of the monumental innings. He survived 161 balls for just 23 runs and Ashwin, who had treatment on his ribs, making 39.

Chasing a mammoth target of 407, India reached 334/5 after batting for 131 overs before both the teams decided to shake hands on the final day of the Test match.

India will need to bat 90 plus overs on the final day of the third Test and score another 309 runs with Pujara and Rahane aiming to save the match by batting out the whole day

Ashwin said the Indian players have faced racism in Sydney earlier too and "disappointment" will be a "mild word" to describe how they are feeling after young pacer Mohammed Siraj was subjected to racial slurs

`Siraj is a very, very skillful bowler and I thought he bowled very well in his first Test’

Former left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha was all praise for the off-spinner Ashwin and said he had become the leader of the bowling attack.

The four-match series between India and Australia currently stands levelled at 1-1 and the third Test is slated to be played at the Sydney Cricket Ground from January 7.
