Fifth Test SCG Day three results, scores, time, program, entertainment, tips, odds, how to watch

G’day cricket fans. It’s time. Day three of the fifth and final Test of this incredible Border-Gavaskar series is here – and I’m pretty sure by the close of play today, someone’s going to be lifting that trophy. I have no idea who, and neither do you.

That’s how finely balanced things are right now between Australia and India.Ravinda Jadeja and Washington Sundar will resume at 10.30am AEDT with India on 6-141. That’s a lead of 145 runs, having finished their first innings just four runs in front after a phenomenal day two in which 15 wickets fell – and most of them, unfortunately for Australia, belonged to the hosts.

The situation would be almost beyond retrieval for the tourists were it not for a swashbuckling 65 off 33 balls yesterday by Rishabh Pant, who dragged his team back from the brink. But we still don’t know much about the fitness of Jasprit Bumrah, who spent most of his Saturday getting scans on a mystery injury; we don’t know if he’s fit enough to bat, let alone bowl.

I’m Vince Rugari and I’ll be gibbering with you throughout the day with contributions from our esteemed cricket geniuses Daniel Brettig and Tom Decent. Let’s go.
