Pat Cummins was the standout bowler for Australia, taking two crucial wickets in a single over during the first session and later dismissing Jaiswal when his side desperately needed a breakthrough. Travis Head may have failed to make an impact with the bat in this match, but he played a crucial role with the ball, dismissing Pant at a pivotal moment which is the turning point of this match. For his all-round performance across both innings, Cummins is deservedly named Player of the Match. That's all for today. Thanks for joining us!
