LONDON : India were left battered and bruised as they tried to cope with a vicious Australia bowling onslaught but somehow managed to limit the damage to reach lunch on 260-6 on day three of the World Test Championship at The Oval on Friday.
After a dismal showing on day two when India were left hanging on at 151-5 in response to Australia's first innings total of 469, the morning session got off to a painful start for the world's top-ranked team. As Bharat departed for five, India trailed the Australians by 317 runs and were left facing a monumental challenge of avoiding the follow-on target with just four wickets in hand.
Thakur also received lifelines while on eight, when he was dropped at gully by Cameron Green, and survived an lbw shout on 36 when DRS showed Cummins had bowled a no ball.
