Ind vs Aus Day 4 Live Score, WTC Final 2023: Australia stretched its lead to 296 runs against India and tightened its grip on the World Test Championship final after three fascinating days at the Oval on Friday. It was another enthralling, bruising day in which the fast bowlers capitalized on a pitch with a nasty, erratic bounce to put the batters in extreme doubt. And yet the quality of the world’s two best teams produced 268 runs from 75.4 overs at a cost of nine wickets.

WTC 2023 Final LIVE Score: India and Australia will lock horns once again in the final of the World Test Championship on June 10. On the third day of the Test match, India were bowled out for 296 runs while Australia scored 123 runs and lost 4 wickets at the close of play on Friday.

 

Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur shone in the batting department for India, with Rahane falling just 11 runs short of a well-deserved century, while Thakur scored his third century at The Oval. The Indian duo stood firm on a deteriorating pitch, taking hits to the body to keep their team in the game.

 

Australia leads by 296 runs with six wickets to spare. India will look to bowl the Kangaroos out for less than 400 runs and hope their batting can withstand the pressure of the swinging conditions at The Oval in the second innings.

 

India vs Australia, WTC Final Day 3 Highlights: India were saved the blushes somewhat on Day 3 thanks to a valiant seventh wicket stand between Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur. The pair put up 109 runs off 145 balls and ensured that India lost just one wicket in the first session. However, the stand didn't survive too long in the second session with Ajinkya Rahane falling to Pat Cummins on 89 thanks to a sensational catch at gully by Cameron Green. Thakur fought on and reached a half century before falling on 51 to Green. India were eventually all out for 296 and Australia took a first innings lead of 173 runs. David Warner then fell early as Mohammed Siraj and Mohammed Shami came in all guns blazing. Marnus Labuschagne and Usman Khawaja then survived the 11-over burst before Tea and Australia were 23/1 at the end of the session. Khawaja fell soon after resumption after which Steve Smith came in and switched gears for Australia. He and Labuschagne put up 62 runs for the third wicket and seemed to have completely shut down any chances for India when Smith suddenly went for a big heave against Jadeja and perished. Travis Head also fell to Ravindra Jadeja without scoring too many. Cameron Green and Labuschagne then saw Australia through to Stumps. They continue to be firmly in control at the end of the day despite runs being hard to come by. Australia are 123/4 and lead by 296 runs.
