India has a task at hand, as it defends the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in a four-Test series, Down Under. The series is presently tied at 1-1, as a win in the ongoing third Test would help India retain the title. However, Australia seems to be in control at the end of Day 3.

India had a mixed day, but not enough luck, as Australia finished on top at stumps on Day 3 of the third Test, for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), on Saturday. Australia currently leads by 194 runs, as India looks to unearth success, to retain the title. Meanwhile, we take a look at the records scripted during the day.

Cheteshwar Pujara scripts an unwanted one: Pujara did manage to play a decent knock of 50, but failed to convert it prominently. While it was his 26th half-century in the format, it happened to be his slowest one, as it came off 174 deliveries. His previous slowest was 173, against South Africa, in 2018.
