The final Test match between India and Australia is currently underway at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground. The ball is already in Australia's court after the Indian batters failed to set up a big total in their second innings. Nevertheless, a big moment occurred from India's perspective as Mohd. Siraj provided the visitors with an opening.
Siraj, who has been spearheading the bowlers in this clash due to Bumrah's unforeseen exit, removed Aussie opener Usman Khawaja for 41 runs off 45 deliveries. Khawaja, who has not managed to make a significant score in the series, made sure he made a mark in the final showdown of the series.
His wicket was crucial from India's perspective as both Siraj and India's stand-in skipper Virat Kohli hugged one another in happiness right after the right-arm pacer struck gold. Interestingly, Siraj reached a milestone as he picked up his 100th Test wicket after dismissing the opening batter.

In a good move for the visitors, Rishabh Pant safely collected the ball behind the stumps. With this the brewing partnership between Khawaja and Travis Head was broken.
