00:00Welcome to test day, day three here in the first test in Perth India in a
00:29dominant position. They lead by 218 runs, no wickets down in their second innings.
00:35Here's all the action from the first session.
00:37Information there, a little bobble in the hands as one Indian batter departs.
00:42Listen to the roar, the king arrives.
00:49That's a confident stroke.
00:51And the ever-bustling Dirac Kohli between wickets will get back for a very, very easy third.
00:58Ominous signs. That'll make him feel a lot better.
01:02That's a nice, confident punch down the ground.
01:06And there's no trying to omit the ball.
01:10This is just a sort of like an extended block shot.
01:15That's raced away.
01:18He gets probably good bats, I suppose.
01:22Wouldn't cost him much without this.
01:28I like the way he's moving now.
01:30Trigger movements.
01:32Straight forward.
01:34Just eases into a nice cover drive, Virat Kohli.
01:46The outfield much quicker on day three here at Perth Stadium.
01:50Shot back for three.
01:52If you come early in the morning and watch Virat Kohli have a few throw downs,
01:56this is the shot that he practises more than any.
02:03Oh, that's a beautiful shot from Kohli.
02:05We're talking about the young man, but don't forget the old bull at the other end.
02:08Just eases into an on-drive and said, hang on.
02:11I can bat a bit too.
02:12Has he just called him an old bull?
02:15It's Virat Kohli you're talking about, Howie.
02:18Well, I hope that's not lost in translation, Michael.
02:21What a strike.
02:22Yeah, perfection from Kohli.
02:24I guess the icing on the keg.
02:26I mean, I've got to get ten wickets in the second innings to win the game,
02:29but the icing for them would be for Kohli to go and get a score.
02:33Cut!
02:38Cut!
02:39Shouts of catch it.
02:41Have a look at the umpire.
02:42Carey couldn't prevent the runs.
02:51Called byes.
02:58It's looking good so far.
02:59Oh, that's a beautiful shepherd there from Washington Sundar.
03:02Didn't allow Lightning to get across.
03:05Enter the over.
03:07Five for 324.
03:13Yeah, no, cracks bigger.
03:15Back to the old whacker.
03:20Nice.
03:21It's not a shot you see very often from Kohliot.
03:24Yeah, got him.
03:26I hope he's all right.
03:28That would wake you up.
03:30Security guards, I believe, are not allowed to look at the game.
03:35They've got to look at the crowd.
03:36And that's pretty dangerous in itself.
03:38And it's just got that security guard.
03:41On the side of the head is a pretty good shot by Kohli.
03:45Went after it.
03:46Uppercut.
03:47A couple of bounces.
03:48This poor security guard minding his own business.
03:49Looking at the crowd.
03:50He's gone for six.
03:51That is a big hit.
03:52And then, unfortunately, the security guard.
03:53Couldn't laugh.
03:54He's minding his own business.
03:55Definitely gone for six.
03:56And watch this.
03:57Oh!
03:58Picks him off.
03:59Straight in the lemon spread.
04:00Oh!
04:01That's got to hurt.
04:02Kohli's looking very concerned there.
04:03And you've got the physio running out to take a look.
04:05I hope you're all right, young man.
04:06Because you were doing a good job.
04:07You were doing your job.
04:09Oh!
04:10Oh!
04:11That's got to hurt.
04:12Oh!
04:13Don't mess up.
04:14That's got to hurt.
04:15Kohli's looking very concerned there.
04:16And you've got the physio running out to take a look.
04:18I hope you're all right, young man.
04:19Because you were doing a good job.
04:20You were doing your job.
04:25Oh!
04:26May have to have security guards with the helmets on.
04:28I'd say, in a T20 game, you would have to have a helmet on.
04:30You are there monitoring your own business
04:31watching the crowd, as you said, June.
04:33And then, all of a sudden, you get 156 grams
04:36straight to side of the melon.
04:38inside the melon. I think someone would have yelled out to him.
04:41Just sitting there behind him.
04:44Well, that will be the concussion rule.
04:46Have to get a spare security guard out in there.
04:50Under the stand ready to go.
04:52Yeah, this guy doesn't have to be like the lake.
04:55Deep cover.
04:57Backward point and it's easy.
04:58Just turn around the corner from direct.
04:59Coley.
05:05Stand up sweet.
05:07Beautifully executed.
05:09And that's the only problem with his plan.
05:11That line is going to always pitch outside leg stump.
05:15It's going to be difficult to get an LBW and so Virat Kohler just has to get
05:18plenty of bat on that and it'll go away for four.
05:35But I'm just hitting straight down the long on.
05:37He doesn't really take too many risks, but the one where he just stands and plants his
05:42foot and tries to go around the corner to that 45 region, brings leg slip and the leg, short
05:48leg side there into play.
05:50Yep.
05:51And that's where he's been dismissed a little bit here in Australia.
05:54Full and just worked by Coley.
05:59For a moment you thought Hazel was in the game, then the MRF bet just whipped through.
06:05Pulled up.
06:06It's outfield.
06:07Stopped.
06:08And in the end they'll get three.
06:10That's an imperious looking shot though.
06:16Just picking off singles at will at the moment is Coley.
06:18Yeah, so a perfect breeze for Nathan Lyon would be coming from the right of screen towards
06:23the left.
06:24Use that breeze to drift.
06:27India 5 for 359 from 110.
06:30Jaiswal started on 90 ended up on 161.
06:35First session 1 for 103.
06:37The second session 4 for 84 from 26 overs.
06:41For a total of 53 overs for the day 5 for 187.
06:45The lead 405.
06:49Takes it on and continues to rise.
06:51Hopefully Carey hasn't damaged a hand there, he threw a glove at it that reared and continued
06:56to go.
07:02That flew and it's just clipped the top of his fingers, Alex Carey.
07:08Glovework's been very, very good in this test match.
07:12If I haven't noticed much about him, that's a good sign.
07:15Just a bit late on that, it zipped through quick.
07:23Coley on the front foot going towards the bowling.
07:30Oh, nipped back.
07:32Going the way of India at the moment.
07:36Just seeming back, keeping a touch low.
07:39Bit of bat on it from Durant Coley.
07:43So tough to play on these sorts of pitches, Pat Collins, where there's a bit of up and down.
07:48Generally angles the ball back into the stumps for the right-hander.
07:56Luck's on Coley's side.
07:58Gets it inside edge.
08:03Oh, he just tried to close the face.
08:04That was what Lyon's been looking to do.
08:08A short leg in place and it just eased off the outside edge and a couple more to Virat Coley.
08:14I like that line there, where you're bringing the outside edge into play.
08:21They missed Kevin Green's bowling in this test match.
08:25Most definitely have 50 partnership up, 104 deliveries between the two.
08:32Coley moves to 47.
08:37Oh!
08:38Spins and beats everything!
08:40That looked like it was in Pune, not Perth.
08:48That will interest the Australians and the Indians.
08:515 for 3, 7, 5.
08:56Not so much the Australians.
08:58They've got a bat.
09:00That's the line I'm talking about.
09:01Just outside there, so you can beat the outside edge and then beat the inside edge.
09:05That is dream delivery for an off-spinner through the gate.
09:10Unfortunately, it's put a coat of varnish on the leg peg.
09:16It's just not going their way, Howie.
09:21See the frustration of Nathan Lyon.
09:25He won't bowl a better ball than that in his test series.
09:32Played it at late.
09:37Settle for two and Coley will move to 49.
09:415 for 3, 7, 7.
09:43Round starts to swell.
09:45Nicely worked by Coley.
09:47Gloriously timed through mid-wicket.
09:50Indian fans on their feet.
09:52Coley will trot back for 3.
09:54Bring up a fine 50.
09:56He's 32nd in test cricket.
09:57He's 6th against Australia.
10:00And it's come at a perfect time for the superstar, Burak Coley.
10:05Yeah, he's made a lot of runs in his career, but I tell you what, that 50 will mean a lot to him.
10:09Just in the context of recent form, this series coming up.
10:14It's 50, but it's a good 50 for him.
10:17Give him some confidence.
10:21He's been really calm, I think, in his demeanour today.
10:23Not as edgy at the crease.
10:25He's watched the ball closely.
10:26It's been a few scares, but the pitch has been a bit up and down.
10:30Particularly the last hour, but I think that's been a really good work.
10:41Gosh, English there.
10:43Not bad for a keeper.
10:47Well, most keepers these days have got great throwing arms.
10:55Going out on that, talking about something that's a bit over-pitched.
10:58And this outfield is just cooking up a fraction, and it gets to the fence.
11:05In design, very tall, yes, his eyes lit up there.
11:10It's fractionally over-pitched.
11:13He's just climbed into this.
11:16Nice strike forward.
11:17He's been there long enough to put those away.
11:22Feature of his batting is just the movement of his feet in this innings, really.
11:27He's been very assured, then forward or back or on the drive.
11:41Understandably a tiring attack.
11:44Yeah, it's been a good three balls for Coley.
11:46The three balls ago, he punched it down the ground.
11:49A beautiful top elbow, threw extra cover.
11:53And then the defensive on the back foot.
11:55And that one there was a slow ball.
12:01It's another good turnout today.
12:03Yeah, Sunday crowd.
12:06Test match has been well supported and put.
12:12Extras that should not be happening sloppy.
12:15Now it's Virat's turn.
12:24Smashed down the ground.
12:27It's a six for Virat.
12:31Wow, they've put the foot down.
12:33It's amazing.
12:34And the other batsman plays the shots it can drag.
12:38The teammate along as well, and Virat Coley's looking.
12:41He just wants to hit the gaps and keep it on the ground.
12:43And he's got a foolish ball, and he's gone straight after.
12:47That's a beautiful shot.
12:49And over mid-off for six.
12:53Is there going to be a declaration?
12:58Short takes it on.
13:00Field is run in every direction, and the ball just pierces
13:03between them all.
13:04That is the skill and talent of Virat Coley.
13:07And placement.
13:09What a shot.
13:11Two men back out there in the deep, and he's just pierced
13:14the gap perfectly.
13:15Manus Labashain, absolute disregard for his bowling there.
13:19Virat Coley.
13:22Got plenty of time to get onto that.
13:24He's pierced the gap.
13:25There's two men out there.
13:27Mitchell Stark, diving effort late in the afternoon.
13:31He's bowled exceptionally well today, Mitchell Stark,
13:33but just couldn't get there.
13:34He's timed that ball so well.
13:35This outfield's quite slow here.
13:41Just smoke straight down the ground.
13:43More runs to Coley.
13:45He's charging now.
13:49He's got the pads on Jasper Boomer.
13:50He's just taking the arm guard off.
13:52That's the other part of it.
13:53Coley's just 15 away from 100.
13:55Might want to declare before Coley gets 100, surely.
13:57It'll be a bold decision.
14:00This is just treating Labashain with disdain.
14:04Pumping that down the ground.
14:12All there.
14:14No one's picked that.
14:16Smith threw a foot at it.
14:17More runs to India.
14:21When's the last time we've seen Virat Coley
14:22play a reverse sweep, let alone in this match?
14:24That's the last shot I expected Virat Coley
14:27to play in this situation.
14:28I think you'll do the same as me.
14:29Maybe walk across and go square leg sweep.
14:32That's a nice shot.
14:33Steve Smith wasn't expecting it either.
14:35Not to go that fine anyway.
14:42This is everything and it's called a wide.
14:44That's exactly what we're talking about, Huss.
14:46Yeah, so he's bowled a few balls down the leg side.
14:48It's negative bowling.
14:49And if you bowl, I think it's two outside the leg start,
14:53not called, then you get one warning
14:55and then it's called a wide if you keep going down the leg side.
14:59Another single for Coley.
15:02Just reflects where India has Australia,
15:06that the home side are in a position
15:08where they're being deemed to be bowling negatively
15:11against the laws of the game.
15:13And then he's going to be able to do it.
15:16Sweeps.
15:17Sweeps hard.
15:18Work to be done in the field.
15:19Diving effort.
15:20A hundred for Virat Coley.
15:22The King continues his love affair of batting in Australia.
15:31He's checking, he's looking, he's not sure.
15:38But now he understands.
15:39Yes, Virat.
15:40It's another tongue.
15:41Your thirtieth.
15:42Your seventh in Australia.
15:44Your ninth against Australia.
15:46The great Virat Coley.
15:48And the declaration is being made on an absolutely perfect day.
16:03Well, you can see how much it needs to him.
16:07He's got his family here in the crowd.
16:08There's his wife.
16:09What an innings.
16:10Taking a moment to soak it all in.
16:11Thanks to Maccas.
16:12The lead.
16:13I don't know if it's daunting, formidable, or impossible, but it stands at 533.
16:21Australia, in this last little period of play, will have to survive for 24 minutes against
16:27the likes of Jeff.
