Spin-dominated Blackfoot
In the Indore Test, the batsmen played on the back foot and gave wickets to the spinners in 9 cases. In the first two Tests of the current series, spinners got wickets four times. Another novel incident has happened in the current series. With this, the team that lost the toss in all three Tests won the Test. This has happened four times in a bilateral series on Indian soil.
Practice with reviews
The umpire's job on a difficult pitch was also not easy. Three reviews of India and Australia have succeeded in the Indore Test. In the first over of this Test, there were two strong appeals against Rohit Sharma, but Australia captain Steve Smith did not take the review. However, Rohit would have been out in both cases. In the case of 11 reviews, umpire Joel Wilson had to change the decision four times, while Nitin Menon had to change two decisions. However, if the two teams took three reviews, Nitin had to change the decision in all three cases. The way the Indian team wasted the opportunity with unnecessary reviews also played a role in the result of this Test. The total number of dot balls in the current series has increased to 3870.
