Australia vs India, 4th Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

On the brink of history

Today is when India bail themselves out of 70 years of groundhog days. It's the day India win their first ever series in Australia. And if you failed to get some sleep last night, waking up shuddering in disbelief about what India's on the brink of, then you aren't alone. Kuldeep Yadav was a sight to behold on the fourth day. Bowling in front of his hero Shane Warne, Kuldeep razed through Australia with his second five-wicket haul in Tests and showed that he's no one-time wonder. Bharath Arun expects greater things from the 24-year-old.

Australia, on the other hand, looked mentally shot. How Nathan Lyon resigned to the umpire's decision and didn't review was nothing like we have seen from Australia before. They followed-on at home for the first time in 30 years, and Peter Handscomb conceded how hurtful it was. Bharat Sundaresan writes about how Kuldeep propelled Australia's dive to the nadir.
