India and Australia are going neck to neck in the final of the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) Final. After opting to bowl first, the Rohit Sharma-led side looked decent with the ball in the first session as they bowled some great lines and lengths and removed both the openers.
The start of the post-lunch session was fruitful as they removed Marnus Labuschagne early. But after that, nothing has gone their way as Travis Head and Steve Smith have batted exceptionally well and have taken the game away from India.
