Travis Head and Steve Smith were the stars of the show, guiding Australia to a strong first innings total. Head scored his ninth Test century and third against India, with a dazzling 152 off 160 balls, including 18 fours. Smith, meanwhile, rediscovered his form with his 33rd Test century, scoring 101 with 12 fours. Their partnership of 241 runs was a crucial factor in Australia's first innings score of 445.
India responded with 260 runs, but Australia's bowlers, particularly Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, made significant contributions. Cummins took four wickets, while Starc bagged three scalps, helping Australia secure a 185-run first-innings lead.
In their second innings, Australia declared at 89/7 after 18 overs, setting India a target of 275 runs in 54 overs. However, rain intervened, and only 2.1 overs were bowled in the fourth innings, leading to a draw.
The series remains level at 1-1, with the next Test scheduled as the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground starting on December 26.
