NEW DELHI: Day 3 of the Brisbane Test showcased Australia’s bowling dominance, with Mitchell Starc leading the charge by claiming two vital early wickets, leaving India reeling at the Gabba.
India’s response to Australia’s imposing first-innings total of 445 began poorly.
Starc, despite being hit for a boundary on his opening delivery, struck back immediately, dismissing Yashasvi Jaiswal on the very next ball.
Jaiswal, who scored just 4, was caught at slip by Mitchell Marsh in what was a straightforward chance.

Starc continued his impressive spell, dismissing Shubman Gill shortly after.
Gill, attempting to stabilise the innings, fell victim to a stunning diving catch by Marsh at gully.
The Australian players celebrated Gill’s wicket with great energy, underlining their dominant position early in India’s innings.
Australia were bowled out for 445 in their first innings on Day 3 of the third Test against India. Resuming at 405/7, the visitors wrapped up the Australian innings by taking the final three wickets for just 40 runs.
